I feel this wave that is carrying me
And I am unable to stop
I stand outside of my body
But it continues to walk
Love me and touch me, your body may feast
Torn between two sides of my nature
Half god and half beast
This hunger in my flesh my instinct says it knows
What's best
And when the animal takes hold
Feel forces outside my control
And then my mind starts to work out what's
Going on
While the knot in my stomach is telling me
Something's wrong
Yes its all the pain that I'm feeling
And all the guilt that I hide
Yes its all the hurt that I caused you
And all the tears that I've cried
This hunger in my flesh my instinct says it knows
What's best
This craving comes and all I want is more - just a
Little bit more
To be shameless is blameless. If we be what we are
If freedom is what I suspect
Then tomorrow will jar against your conditioning.
