To place you in a silver cage
As she closes in and captures you
With intoxicating delights
The light, it stains and consecrates
That swirl and smoke and haunt this place
From wanton hearts that would seduce
And beats within their virgin chests
And grows and spreads its vines and leaves
And you tremble like a frightened bird
So once you're safe inside, she might let you out
Tasting the skin of a foreign girl
Embracing those who might have moved
And watch as it seeps to their hearts
But now remain to drink the night
Would leave you drunk inside this dream, dream
And here I know seduction breeds
But it's always night and there is no moon
Pulling it near to their swelling breasts
To fly in the circles around the room
And you find yourself on a velvet couch
From vials black and thick with steam
And you're not sure if you want to be
Her eyes are black and wet like oil
And you lay with her on a bed of blue
How soft they speak and seem to be at peace
And the shades of the lamps are woven red
Anointing all forgotten forms
Deep within her poisoned womb
With the movement of the music and the madness
And you wonder if you are alive
That's pulling me into this
The girls in gowns all nurse the dark
But you drink her sweat like it was wine
And you watch them take the light from you
And she ties your hands with a string of pearls
