A Strange Type of Love


A silent stage fills with smoke
Anticipation in the air
The spellbound crowd is whispering
He will fulfill their fears

The musician with eyes of blood
With heart and hands of steel
I feel him suck away my soul
Let fall eternal tears

His song is harsh and thick with pain
Reverberates in me
I meet his eyes and his lips curl
And so begins our game

He lures me with a magic voice
An eager touch of ice
A silent wish, a conquering kiss
Seduction without shame
