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
