(v1)
Someone taught me young beware of the temptress
Something about the way it moved was a violence
Tell me about it baby, you must have been so scared
Just a perfect cut of unspoiled devotion
Signified in lust and born out of compulsion
What did you expect, a siren to play this fair?
(pre-chorus)
If it's this or the end of me
I guess I'll play the enemy
If it all ends in tragedy
I guess I'll play the enemy
(chorus)
Is my body
As deadly as you say
Are you frightened
By all my sultry ways
I'm not sorry
It's like you always said
Just a body
Born in disarray
Cursed at birth a sinner
Next time I'll be swifter
Born in disarray
No one loves a sinner
Next time I'll be swifter
Born in disarray
(v2)
Someone told me young that I'd be a temptress
Something about the way I moved was a violence
Cry about it baby, you must have been so scared
Guess I'm your perfect cut of unspoiled devotion
Sanctified in lust and born out of compulsion
What did you expect, a siren to play this fair?
If it's this or the end of me
I guess I'll play the enemy
If it all ends in tragedy
I guess I'll play the enemy
(final chorus)
Is my body
As deadly as they say
Are you frightened
By all my sultry ways
I'm not sorry
It's like they always said
Just a body
Born in disarray
Cursed at birth a sinner
Next time I'll be swifter
Born in disarray
No one loves a sinner
Next time I'll be swifter
Born in disarray

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
