He said to me Child, I'm afraid for your soul These things that you're after, they can't be controlled This beast that you're after will eat you alive And spit out your bones
She'll string you along and she'll sell you a lie But there's nothing but pain on the edge of a knife There is no courage in flirting with fear To prove you're alive
I've seen the true face of the things you call 'life' The song of the siren that holds your desire But Death, she is cunning, and clever as hell And she'll eat you alive
