Desire Lyrics

I have seen behind the veils,
Beneath the streets, pried back the nails.
Now these eyes see differently.
See things for what they don't want to be.

I have heard translated lies,
From their intent through their disguise,
I know now so far from bliss,
By innocence left without a kiss

Night life, of open pyres the
Sinful secrets passed through wires.
Wet sticky bills for souls for hire,
How simple is surrender to desire.

Desire.

I have touched the skin of risk,
Been forewarned did not resist.
Now this carcass feels so old,
But wrong or not, I chose to lose control.

I have tasted wet of sex, swallowed whole what night reflects.
Now this tongue, knows secrets,
I must say were well worth the excess.

Tonight lies before this skull,
So gladly I feel passion's pull,
So the answer question's why,
Respect deciphers pathways to desire.
