Taking Me Under
I fall into your arms
Melting like ice in coffee
I simply can't resist
Your allure, your temptation
Your come-hither eyes
Capture my ever-wanting soul
The air that you breathe
Is pulled from my own weak lungs
Whithout your presence
I am defenseless and frail
Alone I am dead
Or so you'd have me believe
Like a leech you ate
Off my flesh, my very soul
Dragging me to hell
Along with your sins and guilt
So naive I was
To your bitter, selfish ways
A delicate mask
Hid the murderess within
Burning Gehenna
Is now my only master
Screaming as I melt
Paying for your secret sins
I will have revenge
Haunting you until your death
I will sleep in peace
Knowing I've tortured your soul
Melting like ice in coffee
I simply can't resist
Your allure, your temptation
Your come-hither eyes
Capture my ever-wanting soul
The air that you breathe
Is pulled from my own weak lungs
Whithout your presence
I am defenseless and frail
Alone I am dead
Or so you'd have me believe
Like a leech you ate
Off my flesh, my very soul
Dragging me to hell
Along with your sins and guilt
So naive I was
To your bitter, selfish ways
A delicate mask
Hid the murderess within
Burning Gehenna
Is now my only master
Screaming as I melt
Paying for your secret sins
I will have revenge
Haunting you until your death
I will sleep in peace
Knowing I've tortured your soul
