Lizard Skin Songtext

von The House Of Usher

She fixed me with her hungry eyes
I couldn't move, she seemed to sigh
The signs she gave were almost clear
She asked me to believe in what she offered
And to loose my fear

The evening I got to her home
I found she didn't live alone
I couldn't stand her temptation, yet
Mankind's existence is threatened by so many things

When I closed my eyes
I felt she wasn't really human
- So strange and yet so sweet
And when I opened my mind for her
- Singing whistling kind of speaking,
She said that she should know
What I'd need
And I need her

When I awoke, she wasn't there
I tried to find her everywhere
The only sign, that I could find
Was the reptile skin that she had left behind
