For Wanting You

It comes as no surprise
Your face filled with lies
Hovers all around me in this roomClouds hung with my dismay
A hot bed where we lay
Your every kiss tasting like a tombIf time becomes a judge
If my body holds a grudge
It's just because I needed sanctuaryYour skin under my nails
My curiosity that failed
To save myself for something that I needI 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 youWe do things 'cause we must
The law of love and lust
Comes together just like oil on flameI 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 lustWhen I get back on the street
Tell everybody that I meet
Maybe these aren't scars, they're only rustI 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
