Sweet Seductress

Tempt me oh sweet seductress
With your heart of lies
I've let lust take the best of me
It took everything
It leaves me so empty

Wake me up
Let me know that I am loved
I'll go through hell for you
Will you love me at my worst
Or will you leave me in my thirst
Please believe in me

Tempt me oh sweet seductress
With your heart of lies
I've let lust take the best of me
It took everything
It leaves me so empty

Oh God
Please let me suffer
When I have nothing to offer
Put me in the stomach of the beast
Take the best from me
Let me know this house is not my home
Show me you're on the throne
Please draw me close to you
As I run away from you

Tempt me oh sweet seductress
With your heart of lies
I've let lust take the best of me
It took everything
It leaves me so empty

I want more than this world
has given me
Dark thoughts of emptiness 
Is all I've seen
I wanna believe I can live my dreams
That there's a better path ahead of me

Please give me the strength to scream

Leave me
Oh Sweet Seductress
