The Autumn Offering

Venus Mourning
These words drip of deceitLeaving trails of my convictionsYour words eat me aliveOr merely kill my will to go onHer sweatIt tastes of contemptHow I hate you for your beautyYour lips taste of poisonBreathing lies on to your skinRip me openIn moments of epiphaniesI won't condemn you tonightNothing I have ever said to youCould bring me back to your lifeSo Ill re-collect the lies you whisperedMy hearts on fireSo discardedThrown to the starving wolvesBy the hand of VenusI should have left you thereToo pretty to wasteToo soft on my lipsSongtexteToo sweet not to tasteI can't see it as anything but tragicDrenched in sorrowLighting highway firesI'm tasting dissonance inside a momentI'd cut out my heart and bleed without youAll we love will leave usAll that's gold will rot and witherAs we melt away to nothingWe won't be rememberedIn her eyes are dying embersSo many tears for fading beautyWhen my hand was reachingI could count on her for giving inWhy can't you just forgive me?Rip me openIn moments of epiphaniesI won't condemn you tonightNothing I have ever said to youCould bring me back to your lifeAs I was the seasonsChangingThe dying leaves fall without youAs I was the seasonsChangingThe dying leaves fall without you Aus Songtexte Mania
