There she lies, a vision in the dark Invader of my heart Look at me, behaving like a fool possessed Damned if Ill be doomed By this woman neath the moon over madness
Shall I kiss the mouth, stroke the hair Undress her - do I dare Or bite into the vein above her heaving breast Ah, the sun best come up soon Theres no telling with the moon over madness
And when I see her face The tuft of hair beneath the lace I feel the fire of mortal men As she draws a languorous breath So full of life, so close to death Im filled with wild revenge
Shall I tear into her skin Let the beast inside me win Im so uncertain Or shall I fight my heart no more Ease my lover to the floor And loose my burden
What Id give to know just what I am A monster or a man An angel born of hell, or simply human flesh One of which is in this room Wondering neath the mood over madness
Shall I tear into her skin Let the beast inside me win Im so uncertain Or shall I end this lonely war Ease my lover to the floor And loose my burden
Woman wont you hold me in your arms Before you come to harm And take this tender love and drive it through my chest Stike hard, do it soon Theres no telling with the moon over madness
