Part of a series of songs entitled "Confessions of a Serial Seducer" that deal with love, sex, betrayal, and devotion.
This particular track deals with the vampire-like essence of a man's distaste of his own powerful and intoxicating grip over a woman who loves him.
Run From Me
I am transforming right before your eyes.
I am becoming all that you despise.
I am shedding my skin, my body rotting from within, I can feel the burning intensify.
I'm the thorn twisting in your side.
I feel the horns forming right above my eyes.
I am the serpent slithering right between your thighs.
I steal a bite from your fruit, while my seed takes root, I can feel my fires multiply.
And there is nothing you can do to put it right.
And I am no good.
I don't want to see these things done to you.
But its too late now and you better run from me. You better hide the bleed, well...
You better run from me, you better hide from me.
There is no gaurantee you're gonna make it out alive.
No matter what you believe, everyone else can see
Your heart belongs to me, whether you live or die.
I am the needle plunged into your mind.
I'm your addiction personified.
And I am no good.
I don't want to do these things I've done to you.
But I can't help myself and I give in to my greed. I give into my needs, yeah.
I am the blood turned into wine.
The sacred flesh you wish to find.
The one to worship on your knees, I am the science to your creed, I'm your religion demystified.
When you want your prayers answered, don't look to the sky.
And I am no good.
I don't want to see these things done to you.
But its too late now and you better run from me. You better hide the bleed, well...
You better run from me, you better hide from me.
There is no gaurantee you're gonna make it out alive.
No matter what you believe, everyone else can see
Your heart belongs to me, whether you live or die.
I am the needle plunged into your mind.
I'm your addiction personified.
And I am no good.
I don't want to do these things I've done to you.
But I can't help myself and I give in to my greed. I give into my needs, yeah.
