Pleasures Of The Flesh - Lyrics by Killing Joke


Lyrics
i feel this wave that is carrying meand i'm unable to stopi stand outside of my bodybut it continues to walklove me and touch meyour body my feasttorn between two sides of my naturehalf god and half beastthis hunger in my flesh my instinct says it knows what's bestand when the animal takes hold feel forces outside my controland then my mind starts to work outwhat's going onwhile the knot in my stomachis telling me something's wrongyes it's all the pain that i'm feelingand the guilt that i hideyes it's all the hurt that i caused youand all the tears that i've criedthis hunger in my flesh my instinct says it knows what's bestthis craving comes and all i want is more - just a little bit moreto be shameless is blameless if we be what we areif freedom is what i suspectthen tomorrow will jar against your conditioningthis hunger in my flesh my instinct says it knows what's bestbut when the animal takes hold feel forces outside my control
