lyrics

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Perdition:


Verse 1

Here's my story, don't misunderstand
I knew the second that I touched her hand
It was over for me.
I look at her, can barely stand
She has me on my knees

I don't know, but it's true.
There was nothing I could do.


Bridge

Here in perdition
So sweet
An eternity spent
Prostrate at her feet
I was lost
The cost of this serendipity
Was naught
While I was caught
Up in her divinity


Chorus:

I sold my soul to see her smile
Just to get her to stay awhile
Now she owns me.
That's just her style.
(Repeat)


Verse 2

I sold myself into foreign lands
Just to feel the touch of foreign hands
Escape's not meant to be
Everything else is lost to me


Bridge

She moves through me
like gale force winds
consuming me
and all my sins


Chorus


Repeat.....
