Pleasure

Chris Juris

The best for me now allows me guarded to sink

And the pleasure seems eternal – seems right

Locking me up at the top is how up is another way down



And the free feeling of sinking

Makes the pleasure rise

Pleasure, take off!

And all the moral-abusers out in the streets

Catching at Pleasure...

Let us be with the Devil for a while!

Let's come down, down, down

The shame, the blame...



And if it got too far?

...would you catch me?

...would you catch at me?

Would you even watch...?



Cleaned the membrane, but you walk alone

Guarded by the cold world

In which I freeze!



Gracious Devil, retreat before ungracious God

Retreat Carnivore

The Good, the Bad and the God

For you to deny I've been mistaken

Good gracious! They said you wanted me on knees

For someone or other

I doubt it could've been you
