The scars of my mortality show upon my face
The balance of the bleeding lies upon my heart
I shade my eyes from the glow of your seduction
I will use my power as you have never know before
I lose myself in the chase, and chances on the fates
Awaken from this haze of lust, the mark of passion plays
The scars of my mortality show upon my face
The balance of the bleeding lies upon my heart
I drink temptation and wash away idealization
Trapped in a promise of what once lay before
An act played out one thousand times before
My portrayal becomes my betrayal
Lies upon a bed of nails broken and betrayed
Lies upon a bed of truth, broken yet unscathed
Vanity mine, empty inside, beauty as wine
