Jekyll

Creeping shadows fill the corners of my mind
Dark desire finds expression every night
A skeleton lurks in every cupboard you must hide
Dark suppression, no confession, live a lie
Jekyll stop me turning into Mr Hyde.

Pandora's box is open, I hear the siren's cry
Drowning in sweet surrender, my lust to satisfy
Breathe life into the shadow, rising up I feel it's power
Drunk on pleasure, drunk on pain, now is the hour.

The shadow now controls me, there is no escape no turning back
Now there is light, now there is dark
Forbidden fruits for Jekyll and for Hyde.

Do I have the urge to kill? Do I try and fight desire?
Do I close my eyes to what I see?
Can't we end this charade? Can't we end this masquerade?
Playing games denying all taboo.

Get a fix from page 3, washing brains with television
Will Pavlov's dog take you a walk?
Here in the realms of existence, threatened with stark mediocrity
Let me drink my joy as well as pain.

Daughter of Elysium, illuminate my darkness
Shed your light, reveal the glory of ideas
Find it in expression, find it in the joy you feel
As the life force channels down your spine.
