Black on Black

a pretty little altar boy
daddy's little pride and joy
change the water into wine
touch yourself and you'll go blind

a warning signal from above
a place where sinners fall in love
they say that opposites attract
so very strange:
Black On Black

a virginal trembling hand
a frightened sacrificial lamb
from a blinding light a shadow falls
a code of silence quakes the halls

a whisper to a peircing scream
a love they say is frightening
they say that opposites attract
so very strange:
Black on Black

change the water into wine
touch yourself and you'll go blind
they say that opposites attract
so very strange:
Black On Black

I heard him say...I don't want to make you feel guilty
Are you a little short of breath?
some things are so sacred...

like a leading question
the power of suggestion
like the face of danger
like the kindness of a stranger

like a Judas Kiss
like pleasure and a little pain
like a sinner or a holy man
a virginal trembling hand

immaculate seduction
absolute corruption
like a blasphemous contract
no turning back

like Black On Black
Black On Black
Black On Black
