Beauty finds refuge
in herself
Lovers wrapped inside
each others lies
Beauty is such a
terrible thing
She is suffering
Yet more than death
(Played as barre chords)
She is suffering
She sucks you deeper in
She is suffering
You exist within her shadow
Beauty, she is scarred
into man's soul
A flower attracting
lust, vice and sin
A vine that can strangle
life from a tree
Carrion, surrounding,
picking on leaves
(Played as barre chords)
She is suffering
She sucks you deeper in
She is suffering
You exist within her shadow
(Power chords) x4
Beauty she poisons
unfaithful all
Stifled, her touch is
leprous and pale
The less she gives the more
you need her
No thoughts to forget when we were
children
(Played as barre chords)
She is suffering
She sucks you deeper in
She is suffering
Nature's luke-warm pleasure
That's it. Took much longer to write out than expected.
In the third verse, he just strums the chords, rather than picking them. I think
he plays the A and Am like this:
Am
