And your eyes are deceit
The make-up runs down into
The bullet wound in your cheek
There's a secret I can share now –
Just don't tell
And is all about lust
There's a world I can show now –
Just don't cry
A black planet of rust
Will this hand destroy you...
Venus in arms
I'll strip you off
In the flood of the light
Venus in arms
You'll taste the dark
Yet so innocent white
Your tongue taste like strychnine
And your long hair is torn
The fancy wings are broken
And a black star is born
There's a venom can you taste it –
Let out your tongue
And it tastes so sweet
There's a diamond can you see it –
Open your eyes
Black sugar deep in the meat
Will this hand destroy you...
Venus in arms
I'll strip you off
In the flood of the light
Venus in arms
You'll taste the dark
Yet so innocent white
And I will suck you
Into the magic turbines of the night
I will lead you to me
And I will tear them down.
All the white stars in your eyes
Then I'll bury them deep
There are the victims of the vices
Which I try to protect
They are the servants of the crisis
Which I try to protect
Your lips are like morphine And your eyes are deceit The make-up runs down into The bullet wound in your cheek There's a secret I can share now – Just don't tell And is all about lust There's a world I can show now – Just don't cry A black planet of rust Will this hand destroy you... Venus in arms I'll strip you off In the flood of the light Venus in arms You'll taste the dark Yet so innocent white Your tongue taste like strychnine And your long hair is torn The fancy wings are broken And a black star is born There's a venom can you taste it – Let out your tongue And it tastes so sweet There's a diamond can you see it – Open your eyes Black sugar deep in the meat Will this hand destroy you... Venus in arms I'll strip you off In the flood of the light Venus in arms You'll taste the dark Yet so innocent white And I will suck you Into the magic turbines of the night I will lead you to me And I will tear them down. All the white stars in your eyes Then I'll bury them deep There are the victims of the vices Which I try to protect They are the servants of the crisis Which I try to protect Explain Request ×
