Otep - Sweet Tooth

(i swear by my sin-loving soul
i can taste your sins all over me)

(v.1)

i see broken angels
with splintered halos

i'm the serpent
swallowed by the sun

my gentle obsession with
corrupt nutrition

i can taste the madness
dripping from your tongue

between the spaces to
scratch the itch

my sins of excess
prove to me that i exist

my lip drip
secrets of the flesh

they fold into a blade
and beg: "make me wet"

i can't help myself
SWEET TOOTH

seduced by my obsession
i'll build my own religion
so i can taste the secret places
that set you on fire

(you are my favourite
most dangerous
fascination)

(v.2)

tempt me devil
teach me what you think i need

her fingers are Caesar
slowly conquering me

we move like Buddhas
twisted in a silent scream

our souls explode
& merge with the Shiva frequency

the meat is sweet
but is it love? or is it lies?

to burn in the heat
of the fire in her eyes

my lips drip
a soft song of love & flesh

that folds into a blade
and beg: "make me wet"

i can't help myself
SWEET TOOTH

seduced by my obsession
i'll build my own religion
so i can taste the secret places
that set you on fire

(v.3)

tempt me
teach me
feed me
heal me

i feel like being bad

the tyrant of my desire
a blushing rosebud begging to be plucked

i feel like being...

inside of you, baby
it was an atomic testing site

explosive, corrosive
but oh, what a delight

they say the body's a temple
& desires a sacrifice

devils speak, angels weep
for my SACRED APPETITES

seduced by my obsession
i'll build my own religion
so i can taste the secret places
that set you on fire

explosive, corrosive
but oh, what a delight

devils speak, angels weep
for my sweet tooth's sacrifice

...take my temperature baby
this is what you taste like

when our souls collide
i can conquer eveything
that defeats me in life

feed me
eat me
drink me

promise i'll never be bored
and i'll be yours tonight

this is what you taste like
this is what you taste like
this is what you taste like
