Kiss of Death

I parted my lips to let you in Could feel the blood leave from my skin No matter how hard I try to fight you off I seem to get loss I feel like a empty cup after the straw drains This is smothering pain You're taking all my air away This is too much for me to take I felt for your evil charms Now, I have died in your arms No more breath This was the kiss of death
