"Eat You Alive" lyrics

"Eat You Alive"

He said to me,
Child, I'm afraid for your soul
These things that you're after, they can't be controlled
This beast that you're after will eat you alive
And spit out your bones

She'll string you along and she'll sell you a lie
But there's nothing but pain on the edge of a knife
There is no courage in flirting with fear
To prove you're alive

I've seen the true face of the things you call life
The voice of the siren that holds your desires
But death, she is cunning, and clever as hell
And she'll eat you alive

Oh, she'll eat you alive
