Keep Me Alive - On A String

Her voice was salvation
Whispered in my ears
Her heart was a nation
Conquered with my fears
She tried only to save
As I was set to destroy
She was made to be my slave
Her heart became my toy

This sick game we play
Like puppets in a string
Dancing into our grave
All the while we sing
Songs of peace to forget we're at war
What is the need when we're all done for

You love it this way

You may be the queen
As they agree and nod
But sadly it may seem
You've forgotten I'm god
Quench all my thirst
Sate my Hollow hunger
You won't be my first
Or my last lover

Got you wrapped around my finger
Got you on a string
Pleasure spiked with pain
I'll make you go insane

Hand on neck and thigh
Tongue ridden with filth
Your body gets me high
As we run for the hills
You are my mistress
You do as I say
No more can you deny this
You love it this way

This sick game we play
Like puppets on a string
Dancing into our grave
All the while we sing
Songs of peace to forget we're at war
What is the need when we're all done for
