Luxt - Desire lyrics

I have seen behind the veils,

beneath the streets, pried back the nails.

Now these eyes see differently.

See things for what they don't want to be.

I have heard translated lies,

from their intent through their disguise,

I know now so far from bliss,

by innocence left without a kiss

Night life, of open pyres the

sinful secrets passed through wires.

Wet sticky bills for souls for hire,

how simple is surrender to desire.

Desire.

I have touched the skin of risk,

been forewarned did not resist.

Now this carcass feels so old,

but wrong or not, I chose to lose control.

I have tasted wet of sex, swallowed whole what night reflects.

Now this tongue, knows secrets,

I must say were well worth the excess.

Tonight lies before this skull,

so gladly I feel passion's pull,

So the answer question's why,

respect deciphers pathways to desire.
