Lyrics

Honey on a Razor

You're a bright thing
but red's the light that shines through and I'm drawn to
something dark and deep and sweet there down inside you
in a twisted maze I wander am I wrong to want the devil's bride?

Fall through the window and into the shadow needle in the door (pre-chorus)
run to the river and into the arms of the Siren on the shore
Steel in the moonlight, blood in the candle, the circle on the floor
run to the treeline, din of the voices, memory no more

Oh honey on a razor lovely lust you cut so sweet (chorus)
Ah sooner or later drown me down in my own deep
Oh honey on a razor lovely lust you cut so sweet
Ah sooner or later you drown me in my sleep

It's you the night brings
and blue's the light that shimmers on the ceiling
somewhere far and high I hear you calling
empty bed behind me and I'm running to meet the devil's bride.
