Death - The Flesh And The Power It Holds

a song about the dangers and idiocy of living a sybaritic lifestyle and living in the throes of passion

i told you once
but I will say it again
when you live the flesh
it's the beginning of the end

it will take you in
and it will spit you out
behold the flesh
and the power it holds

passion is a poison laced with pleasure bittersweet
one of many faces that hides deep beneath

it will take you in
and it will spit you out
behold the flesh
and the power it
holds

touch, taste, breathe, consumed

deja-vu
already knew
from the first encounter
but now i know
to let go
of words - to speak no more

like a wind
upon your face
you can't see it but you know it's there
when beauty shows
its ugly face
just be prepared

passion burns
like fire carried by the wind
the end of a time
a time to begin

it will take you in
and it will spit you out
behold the flesh
and the power it holds

it builds you up
one way and tears you right back down
a time to begin
the end of a time

it will take you in
it will spit you out
behold the flesh
and the power it
holds

touch, taste, breathe, consumed
