There she lies, a vision in the dark
|
Invader of my heart
|
Look at me, behaving like a fool possessed
|
Damned if I'll 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
|
There's 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
|
I'm filled with wild revenge
|
|
Shall I tear into her skin
|
Let the beast inside me win
|
I'm so uncertain
|
Or shall I fight my heart no more
|
Ease my lover to the floor
|
And loose my burden
|
|
What I'd 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
|
I'm so uncertain
|
Or shall I end this lonely war
|
Ease my lover to the floor
|
And loose my burden
|
|
Woman won't 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
|
There's no telling with the moon over madness
|
|
My madness
|
Over you
|

MOON OVER MADNESS
