Praying Mantis

Praying Mantis

T: Marcus Testory – M: Matthias Ambré & Marcus Testory

There's a veil around her
of beauty and disguise
giving a perfect illusion
burying the truth in those eyes

Men get lost in her embrace
Praying Mantis

Her victim's mesmerized
by her siren's song
a promise of devotion,
of pleasures fantasised

Men get lost in her embrace
Praying Mantis

mesmerised, analysed, paralysed,
satirised, randomised, victimised

Men get lost in her embrace
Praying Mantis

She's set a honey trap
a lurking smile
cause the spirit is willing,
but a man's flesh is weak

As she's through and sated
the strange curtain falls
showing the smited husk of
what once was a man... lost in her embrace
