lyrics

Did you like it when I danced for you
With my lips painted red?
Did you like it when I danced for you
And came alive in your bed?

Cause I tried so hard to be what you desired
But you never tried at all to be whom I admired
Hid us away in the dark
If as they say making love is an art
Why do I feel so ugly?

Kiss my body, kill my soul
When did I get so old?
When did I get so old?

I never loved you but I love you all the same
And you never loved me but I guess that's the game
Cause pleasure is knowing the name of sin
And still longingly calling out to him
As I call to you, as I call to

Kiss my body and kill my soul
When did I get so cold?
When did I get cold?

If you thought I was a real woman back then
Baby you really had no clue
Cause I was just a little girl
Tryna be a woman for you
Oh I was just a little girl
Trying to be woman enough for you

Did you ever feel bad
For taking something I never knew I had?
Did you ever feel bad?
Did you ever feel bad?

As you kissed my body and killed my soul
When did you get so cold?
When did you get so cold?

There you go with a new one in tow
Bet she's as naive as me
There you go with a new one in tow
She'll pay for what she gives away free
Yes she'll pay for what she gives away
I paid for what I gave away
But you'll pay the most
For what you take away
Oh you'll pay the most honey

Kiss her body kill my soul
We all come to know
Kiss my body kill her soul
Him by the name of sin
