may the Lord forgive us, may the gods be with us

 

I crawled quietly to you,

The moment I kissed your neck, no blood left in your vein.

No man has ever escaped this magnet,

Oh, baby, even your dear friend couldn’t hide his darkness.

I could sense your nervousness, deep under your eyes,

And how did you feel when you heard my late-night sighs?

I am, wearing this red dress just for you,

Paint myself like an artwork, just for you,

Spraying this perfume, just for you.

We’re born sinners, raised sinners, fall sinners,

In the end, it’s all the crave for connection and love.

How many souls have lost,

Just to trade for seven seconds of serotonin?

And how long since you buried your head on a woman’s heart?

I wanna hear your helpless voice, your beg for my love,

C’mon, honey, you know how people think when they look at us,

The emperor needs an empress, it’s how they think of us.

And be honest, I knew this is what you want from the start,

From the first moment our eyes intertwined, you played your part.

So let’s make this bedroom our primal ritual tonight,

My lips are your altar, your fingers lift me to flight.

Time and space end in this place,

Like Kanye said, my look is your sin, your sensation, your grace.

So let’s pour all your hatred, your pain over my body,

May the Lord forgive us, may the gods be with us, oh, how beauty

Even tonight seems like a rash decision,

And we’ll feel regret when the sun comes up, with precision.

But let this magic hour be our final destination,

And I’ll let you walk away without hesitation.

So let’s make love,

Let’s make real love,

I’ve shown you my whole, my pure soul,

I’m the Geisha, I’m your down bitch,

Naked in the jungle, being loved is our final wish.

Even after this magic hour, our hearts and souls will be ripped,

But tonight, let’s make this our last trip.
