Song Lyrics

Here she comes spreading like disease
She turns the hearts of men
Like a child blinded and naive
I follow her again
Light a fire and burn it bright to see
Beneath her perfect skin
In her eyes there lies a beast
That destroys me from within
Burn me beat me stab me kill me
Take my heart and send it out to sea
Leave me stranded
Worldly pleasures filtered sadness
My veins fill with drunken madness
Pain of the broken hearted
Show me know me please me need me
Can't you see I'm beggin' on my knees for attention
Glaring daring in the corner
Watching her I feel her shoulder cold
For an angel
And you know I've got to fight
Got the madness in my eyes
Cast your spell all over me little darling
Break my heart again tonight
Here I come spreading like disease
A whisper in the wind
If you're like a child blinded and naïve
Don't follow me my friend
Light a fire burning bright to see
The pain I keep within
'cause in my mind there lies a beast
That keeps me deep in sin
Burn me beat me stab me kill me
Take my heart and send it out to sea
Leave me stranded
Worldly pleasures filtered sadness
My veins fill with drunken madness
Pain of the broken hearted
Show me know me please me need me
Can't you see I'm beggin' on my knee for attention
Glaring daring in the corner
Watching her I feel her shoulder cold
For an angel
And I know I've got to fight
Got the madness in my eyes
Cast your spell all over me little darling
Break my heart again tonight
