Demon Desire

The beast that lurks in my genes

Is controlling my will

In endless search of the ultimate carnal thrill

Like a knight without an armour

I ride out to face the twobacked beast

Naked in the face of horror

A jester at this undercover feast

Desire fills my heart with guilt and pain

As my burning blood from my mind is drained

Demon desire; you lead. I drag behind

Demon desire; leave my fragile mind

How can I be at peace

When my blood is on fire

Don't want to be your slave

Demon desire

I can never fight my nature

I am he – the pleasant primitive

Or so the queens of lust they see me

But myself is all I have to give

Desire fills my heart with guilt and pain

As my burning blood from my mind is drained

Demon desire; you lead. I drag behind

Demon desire; leave my fragile mind

How can I be at peace

When my blood is on fire

Don't want to be your slave

Demon desire

Curse this world

That gives urges but no breeding grounds

How shall I see the sun

Behind desire's brooding clouds

I cannot fight my nature

The pleasant primitive

O, let me live...

All my years and all my gold

It takes to ease the demon

All my years and all my gold

To keep the beast at bay

Could I only put away my bow

When no prey in sight

But now I'll leave my mind behind

For another hungry quest into the night

Demon desire; you lead. I drag behind

Demon desire; leave my fragile mind

How can I be at peace

When my blood is on fire

Don't want to be your slave

Demon desire
