Does love keep you warm at night Or keep you shackled, waiting to die Strain against your wire fence and Bark and bark, make your amends Past your collar, bow your head and Pray to a God that might be dead Empty words, keep your distance Or give in with no resistance No matter how comfortable Baby, chains are chains Your touch is familiar girl, but God I need a change Free me from these bonds of yours Clutches from skin deep Alligator tears that still Haunt me in my sleep Does your lover take you higher Soaring high on wings of fire Or burn you down to ash and cinder Choking on the flames that linger Past your collar, bow your head and Pray to a God that might be dead Empty words, keep your distance Or give in with no resistance
