She descends down from the ceiling
With magnolias in her hair
She lights every single candle

In a crystal chandelier
With no more than a whisper
She illuminates the room

And I am bound here by her poison
Like a drunk in her saloon
As the apparition

She frightens me to death
As flesh and blood and woman
She takes my every breath

As persephone she's perfect
God have mercy on my soul
I am hollow I am helpless

And I've lost all my control

Who am I that the world would miss

Hiding in her sweetest kiss
Dying in her careless crush
The taste of salt on her summer blush

I can smell vanilla rain
Falling soft on her fields again
Write my name in waters still

And let me fade away

I can feel her eyes upon me

But there's nothing I can
Do I am paralyzed in the silence
Of her beautiful remove

And sometimes I get the feeling
When I'm knocking at the door
That with the devil I am dealing

But I keep coming back for more
