about

Track 2 off of Demons, a concept album themed around the Seven Deadly Sins. Close To The Light is the song for lust.

lyrics

[Verse 1]
Heart, lungs
Beating, breathing
Hard and heavy

Eyes front
Gazing at your
Soft and deadly

Lips, tongue
Nothing in the world just as sweet

[Chorus]
I’m inching close to the light
I’m tasting death and it’s invigorating
So much it must be divine

My hands are held to the sky
I’m giving into the power baby
At least I can say I tried (ayy-ayy)

[Verse 2]
Arms, legs
Slipping, gripping
Slow and steady

Hands laid
Learning what
another body

Needs, craves
Can you sense the hunger in me

[Chorus]
I’m inching close to the light
I’m tasting death and it’s invigorating
So much it must be divine

My hands are held to the sky
I’m giving into the power baby
At least I can say I tried (ayy-ayy)

[Bridge]
My weakness is your caress
And your breath
On my neck
Sends shivers down my spine
As we become intertwined
Heat, skin
Touching skin
Focused in
On your scent
Your kiss
My existential bliss

[Chorus]
I’m inching close to the light
I’m tasting death and it’s invigorating
So much it must be divine
My hands are held to the sky
I’m giving into the power baby (yeah oh)

I’m inching close to the light
So much it must be divine
My hands are held to the sky
I’m giving into the power
Baby, baby, baby
