Poppy Red
There was a time when we would meet
On the twisted path we'd been
You'd take me deep inside your den
I'd say it's time to go but then
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
The lights go dim as I descend
Into the chamber of your bed
Breathe honeyed intimacy haze
Fixated servile and enslaved
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
You hold the dagger in denial
No cutting up from my desire
Despite all our intimacies
You pledge allegiance but you lie
You throw the essence on the fire
Narcotize while I respire
Did you think I was going to let you walk away
There's no escaping my sweet opiate
There was a time when we would meet
On the twisted path we'd been
You'd take me deep inside your den
I'm never gonna leave again
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
You hold the dagger in denial
No cutting up from my desire
Despite all our intimacies
You pledge allegiance but you lie
You throw the essence on the fire
Narcotize while I respire
You can't withdraw you cannot cease
You're going to give me what is mine
What is mine
Did you think I was going to let you walk away
There's no escaping my sweet opiate
Poppy Red
Sweet Opiate
Poppy Red
My sweet Opiate
On the twisted path we'd been
You'd take me deep inside your den
I'd say it's time to go but then
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
The lights go dim as I descend
Into the chamber of your bed
Breathe honeyed intimacy haze
Fixated servile and enslaved
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
You hold the dagger in denial
No cutting up from my desire
Despite all our intimacies
You pledge allegiance but you lie
You throw the essence on the fire
Narcotize while I respire
Did you think I was going to let you walk away
There's no escaping my sweet opiate
There was a time when we would meet
On the twisted path we'd been
You'd take me deep inside your den
I'm never gonna leave again
Your lips are poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
Poppy red
You're my sweet opiate
You hold the dagger in denial
No cutting up from my desire
Despite all our intimacies
You pledge allegiance but you lie
You throw the essence on the fire
Narcotize while I respire
You can't withdraw you cannot cease
You're going to give me what is mine
What is mine
Did you think I was going to let you walk away
There's no escaping my sweet opiate
Poppy Red
Sweet Opiate
Poppy Red
My sweet Opiate
