about
A deeply personal song, at the same time inspired by a familiar film noir archetype—a facade of innocent beauty with danger lurking close behind, perhaps making it even more alluring. This contrast is mirrored by the song’s brutal riffing and sensual clean-vocal chorus, laced with emotional guitar solos. Another chapter in our story told through a series of modern metal songs.
lyrics
1
Way down on my luck,
Below the window level of cheap bars,
Bent over the rim
Of my life-long whiskey binge.
Thirsty for allure,
Behind her tempting eyes
I saw the cure,
Did not see through her lies.
[CHORUS]
It felt like a hunt;
The signs were there, and they told me to run.
But i’d rather trust
Something that makes my heart beat fast.
2
Her smile means deceit —
A touch of evil on the flesh so sweet.
Her eyes have the glint
Of God's lies on the face of the Fiend.
She took me in her arms,
And world turned around
Right back from upside down
To normal like a charm.
[CHORUS]
It felt like a hunt;
The signs were there, and they told me to run.
But i’d rather trust
Something that makes my heart beat fast.
[BRIDGE 1]
She came to my place,
She said let’s cut right to the chase,
She said she was lost just like me,
She knew i was too blind to see.
[CHORUS]
It felt like a hunt;
The signs were there, and they told me to run.
But i’d rather trust
Something that makes my heart beat fast.
