Sinful Beauty Spare Me
Beauty bleeds through skin
Infecting all which festers
So deep within
The skeletons cary such secrets
To disgrace and shame Gorgeous
Saying it no longer forgets
We both know what's going on
Spare us the pain
Please, just walk away
You're like a magnet and I'm the steel
It's surfaced and reared its sinful head
Would I partakein this temptation?
Beauty leaves me scrambling,
Reaching for anything firm
Safety net's burnt
My closet's filling and going quick
I shouldn't have let myself fall for you
It's time I just quit
