Lyrics

Mistress

My footsteps echo in early night

I see my shadows secret

It won't belong

My heart beats to a rhythm

I'm come closing in on a designation

I walk through the elevator door

As I'm risen I begin to hear

Feel you a lot alone

A cold wind bites all around me

But I'm warm on the inside

I don't need no drug tonight

This nights gonna change me forever

This room says anything goes

All I need is to be alive tonight

I breathe the smells around me

I'm choking but I want more

You're closing in

Oh mistress come to me

Come to me, come, come to me

A cold wind bites all around me

But I'm warm on the inside

I don't need no drug tonight

This nights gonna change me forever

This room says anything goes

Oh what a pity his alive tonight...
