lyrics

Lo! Watch the creature stand
In the light at hand
Spark up on demand
See the lips open in my eyes
Catch you by surprise
Take and mesmerize

I've got all your needs
In the hand that feels
I'll be playing you bound
To the freedom ground
Your dirtiest deeds
Are on my secret side
So won't you come on your knees
Down to your shadow-pride

I am the place you're always craving to face
You're always easy to chase
You're always dying to taste

CHORUS

Sink into the Fire
Of the Original Game
My feet upon the altar
Of the silver flame

Wrap yourself around
The gaze around the body
I'll take you to the crown
If you surrender to me

I am the shape inside your veins
Blowing the twist of the rhythm
To your brain
I grip the power of the sacred reigns
You bite the skin off
With teeth of blaze

This rill of lust
Brings the sea to dust
The words adjust
And crave the thrust
Feel the bindings obsolete
Liberation complete
Exhilaration released

CHORUS

Sink into the Fire
Of the Original Game
My feet upon the altar
Of the silver flame

Wrap yourself around
The gaze around the body
I'll take you to the crown
If you surrender to me
(2x)

I am the place you're always craving to face
You're always easy to chase
You're always dying to taste
(4x)
