For Wanting You Lyrics

It comes as no surprise

Your face filled with lies

Hovers all around me in this room

Clouds hung with my dismay

A hot bed where we lay

Your every kiss tasting like a tomb

If time becomes a judge

If my body holds a grudge

It's just because I needed sanctuary

Your skin under my nails

My curiosity that failed

To save myself for something that I need

I don't wanna bleed

Or bruise up black and blue

Do I deserve these things

All for wanting you?

Like some virgin with her cloth

I play the goddess coming through

Now I play the parting slave

All for wanting you

We do things 'cause we must

The law of love and lust

Comes together just like oil on flame

I looked into your eyes

You saw me naked for a while

How d'you like it in my little nest?

Who was really using who?

In here the scent of you

Stains the sheets with memory and lust

When I get back on the street

Tell everybody that I meet

Maybe these aren't scars, they're only rust

I don't wanna bleed

Or bruise up black and blue

Do I deserve these things

All for wanting you?

Like some virgin with her cloth

I play the goddess coming through

Now I play the parting slave

All for wanting you
