Even the blind could see her beauty - though they've been robbed of sight Paragons abandon their duty - turn their backs to the light Back in the garden of Eden - I'm sure that she could tempt the snake I always see her when I'm dreaming - yet thoughts of her keep me awake. Heaven is without her - so I'll gladly choose hell. Yes, heaven is without her - so I'll gladly choose hell. She's my dangerous obsession - none more deadly that you'll find She's my dangerous obsession - I can't get her off my mind. Men lust for her like Cleopatra - wish they were her Mark Antony Her boots like Nancy Sinatra's - welcome to walk over me... Her voice it calls me like a siren's - I'm happy to drown in her sea Caught in the web of a black widow - and soon she will devour me. Heaven is without her - so I'll gladly choose hell. Yes, heaven is without her - so I'll gladly choose hell. She's my dangerous obsession - none more deadly that you'll find She's my dangerous obsession - I can't get her off my mind.

Losing You 05:16
I saw you standing there in late October rain Flicking cigarette ashes - skin whiter than cocaine Hair blacker than a raven's - lips coloured like red wine Possessed exquisite beauty - words fail me to define... Perfume smelt of patchouli - it's etched into my brain. Looked like a Succubus though Lilith was not your name Your tongue was like a viper's - your lipstick left a stain I couldn't wash it out no nor could I remove the pain... ...Of losing you. Of losing you. Of losing you. Of losing you. I'll send a message out - hope you're receiving me I'll send a message out - hope that you are hearing me. I'll send a message out - hope you're receiving me I'll send a message out - hope that you are hearing me. Left me covered in bruises - pierced my skin with a bite Didn't see the day much cause - we made love through the night... You left no name or number - none whispered in my ear (so) I'm taking up black magic, hoping that you'll reappear And losing you... Was oh so cruel... and losing you... I'll send a message out - hope you're receiving me I'll send a message out - hope that you are hearing me. I'll send a message out - hope you're receiving me I'll send a message out - hope that you are hearing me.

Torn 03:50
You don't want my love - you don't want my feelings any more. You just want my touch - you're not done treating me like a whore. You don't like my head - you say all my thinking brings you down. You want me in bed - and that's why you're keeping me around. I can’t believe that you could pull my strings I can’t believe that you just want one thing I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it, I can’t believe it... So I’m torn - between my ego and my damned libido I’m torn - my fragile ego and my damned libido You keep on takin’ me for a ride - I think I should have more pride But I’m torn - you keep on inviting me inside Out on the streets - you don’t want me seen by your side But in your bedroom - you push my head between your thighs You don’t need my cash - you’ve something better in your sights You act like my god - even Satan knows that ain’t right
