A Poetic Retelling Of An Unfortunate Seduction bright eyes
Lyrics and guitar chords
Bm
The languAm
age in the dimmer roomsF
Seems to represent the light source Am
wellBm
How soft they speak and seeAm
m to be at peaceF
With the movement of the music and the maAm
dnessF
That is pulling me intoBm
this G
F
And the shades of the lamps are woven redAm
The light, it stains and consecratesBm
Anointing all forgotten formsG
That swirl and smoke and haunt this placeF
The girls in gowns all nurse the darkAm
Pulling it near to their swelling breastsBm
And watch as it seeps to their heartsG
And beats within their virgin chestsAnd here I know seduction breeds same all
throght here
From wanton hearts that would seduce just
follow the pattern
And grows and spreads its vine and leaves
Embracing those who might have moved
But now remain to drink the night
From vials black and thick with steam
Such intoxicating delights
That leave you drunk inside this dream
F,Am,G,Bm
And you watch them take the light from you
Bm
And you find yourselfAm
On a velvet couchF
Tasting the skin of a Bm
foreign girlBm
Her eyes are blackAm
And wet like oilF
And she ties your hands with a striBm
ng of pearlsBm
And you tremble like a frightened birdAm
As she closes in and captures youF
To place you in the silver cageG
Deep within her poisoned wombBm
And once you're safe insideAm
She might let you out to G
flyF
In the circles arounAm
d the roomFm
But it's always nightAm
And there is A#m
no moonFm
And Am
you Gm
wonder iA#m
f you are aliveFm
And yoAm
u're nGm
ot suA#m
re if you want to beFm
But yoAm
u dranGm
k herA#m
sweat like it was wineFm
And you lay with her on a bed of blueAm
And it's awful sweetGm
Like the fruit she cuts A#m
and feeds to youFm
