There she lies, a vision in the dark

Invader of my heart

Look at me, behaving like a fool possessed

Damned if I'll be doomed

By this woman 'neath the moon over madness



Shall I kiss the mouth, stroke the hair

Undress her - do I dare

Or bite into the vein above her heaving breast

Ah, the sun best come up soon

There's no telling with the moon over madness



And when I see her face

The tuft of hair beneath the lace

I feel the fire of mortal men

As she draws a languorous breath

So full of life, so close to death

I'm filled with wild revenge



Shall I tear into her skin

Let the beast inside me win

I'm so uncertain

Or shall I fight my heart no more

Ease my lover to the floor

And loose my burden



What I'd give to know just what I am

A monster or a man

An angel born of Hell, or simply human flesh

One of which is in this room

Wondering 'neath the mood over madness



Shall I tear into her skin

Let the beast inside me win

I'm so uncertain

Or shall I end this lonely war

Ease my lover to the floor

And loose my burden



Woman won't you hold me in your arms

Before you come to harm

And take this tender love and drive it through my chest

Stike hard, do it soon

There's no telling with the moon over madness



My madness

Over you
