I remember the way you would materialize -
A happening in my bed late at night
You'd paralyze me deep in your arms
Those evenings of unworldly delights
(And always vanish with dawn)
I remember all those nights when you came -
Slitting your spirit around me
Drowning my screams with your eerie song
Oh those hours of prolonged ecstasy
(And always I wake you were gone)
Leaving those scars your perfection
With nails that you stained so deep
Cutting me hard your intention
Slip your softness like steel in my sleep
Succubus
I remember the way that you would fly in -
Like a whisper upon a breeze
You'd strangle the sounds of my blistered soul
Oh those nights like a flying trapeze
(Leaving me then made you whole)
I remember the way you moved in on me
My resolve to resist you buried
You sized me up and rode me 'til dawn
Syphoned me drained and unsteady
(Gone like mist in the sun)
(chorus/bridge thing again)
You opened me up and peeled me back
For a long and bumpy ride
When you slid off still surging
Shook your hair while taking your flight
(Returned at the slightest urging!)
