They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand I'm sure it is
Whom natures beast fears as they come and all I see are a dark eyes
And all I feel is heat and flame and all I see are a dark eyes
And passion rules the arrow that flies
Oh time is short and the days are sweet
Where the earth is strung with lovers pearls and all I see are a dark eyes
Oh the French girl shes in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheel
A cock is crowing far away and another soldiers deep in prayer
But I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized
Some mothers child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhere
Hunger pays a heavy price to the falling Gods of speed and steel
I live in another world, where life and death are memorized
But I can hear another drum beating for the dead that rise
They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes
