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
