"Lust" lyrics

"Lust"
(feat. Alexandria)

Her name is Lust
She's fooled the mightiest of men
Nations crumble from within
All it takes is just one sin
Lips red as blood
She'll take your money and she'll run
Oh, her beauty is a gun
No, you can't fall in love with Lust

That's what I called her the night
I saw her texting a guy
A subtle look in her eyes, told me she
Cheated and lied, and it hurt me inside
She stabbed my heart with a knife
Then told my friends with a sigh

His name is Pride
He's never wrong and always right
Stares for hours at his might
Oh, his darkness lies inside
Sharp as a knife
Never a doubt inside his mind
But his ego makes him blind
No, you can't fall in love with Pride

That's what I had to decide
The moment I realized
He'd never budge in his mind, saying I
Cheated and lied and it hurt me inside
And when I started to cry
He yelled at me with despise

Your name is Lust (Your name is Pride)
You looked at me with sinful eyes
You never learned to compromise
You only loved me in the night
Leave while you can (I wish I ran)
Pride is a foolish, broken man
Lust will kill you with her demands
No, you can't fall in love with

Lust is poisonous
Like ivy on a tree
She's a siren leading
Broken men out to the sea
Pride is wildfire
Devouring every leaf
Blind and empty
You can't fall in love with Lust (Pride)
