Price Tag
Such darkness, such despair
Shivering skin, death ensnares
Am I just a mortal man
Does agony know no end
The seductress lips begging for sin
Will this aching heart let her in
Lust will sing her sexy song
Such a beautiful melody, is this so wrong
She grants me control in my desires
Such a lonely night serinated by fire
Maybe I can give away just one kiss
Maybe she'll free me from my lonely abyss
But wait, this wasn't on the price tag
She claimed my soul and left nothing to claim
Why am I stuck in this god forsaken fate
She took the ones I love and gave the things I hate
In life I was told to follow my heart
But it took me so far from who you are
No wonder I was always left alone
Curropted momentary pleasures put up on the throne
I was a slave to desires and sin
She drove love away from within
I guess this is where I went wrong,
I was never a fighter, never been strong
Please God, I know I wouldn't chose me first but
You preach of grace and forgiveness for the broken heart
I know I've been lower than anyone could ever go
Please understand I have no where else to go
I desperately need someone who can see the real me
And still show love, not judging who I ought to be
