Drink a fatal poison
And touch your lips to mine
Find a way to fascinate
And defy the rules of time
Let me listen longfully
To your requiem song
Dance a devil's swaying step
Like they do in Babylon
Be my appetizer
The smoke on my cigar
Drink your way into me
And dig into my scar
Cry a simple melody
I'll whisper in your ear
Drip a tapping rhythm
As I fall into your tears
Lull me with your beauty
Lift me with your sin
Let me trace your outline
With a Cheshire cat grin
Rule my burning kingdom
Issue your decree
Put down some restrictions
On this flaming ecstasy
Break me into pieces
Smash my shattered shell
Open up the golden gates
And light the fires of hell
Panic for the passion
I know only the limits of
Show me very slowly
What it is to love
