lyrics

What do you see when I'm down on my knees begging my God please tell me, what do you see when you see me?

Here's what you get, just what you see, an unhinged beauty, born amongst beasts. I show no fear as the end draws near, as these curtains close I through down my rope, surrender to the knife at my throat.

I throw a little a mention to the Goddess of desire, whose burning, frantive flames re-lit my dwindling fire and throw on a drop of alcohol to seduce the darkened night and I'll let her be the puppeteer as she pulls my heart strings tight.

What do you see when I'm down on my knees begging my God please tell me, what do you see when you see me?

Forgive the child, for her actions seem misguided on ly those who've gone before her know the reasoning behind it, as she seeks a better life beyond becoming some mans wife.

So I thorw another mention to the Goddess of desire, whose burning, frantive flames re-lit my dwindling fire and throw on a drop of alcohol to seduce the darkened night and I'll let her be the puppeteer as she pulls my heart strings tight.
