Tantalized

Church

Heyday

Tantalized

God I've been asleep so long, I've been away

Back from software limbo the natives call today

I let their promises bind me

I embraced a machine, I went through the routine

And I hid from the people who were trying to find me

Till the day comes when you realize

Otherwise you never care

Pandora's box reveals a new surprise

Can't wait to see your eyes, now you've been tantalized

For a hundred and one voluptuous days I broke the law

The labyrinth was closing so we panicked up a door

I let their wanton flesh obsess me

I felt their dreams and drugs assess me

I was hired and fired yet never inspired

Flattering, chattering words to impress me

All that glittered had me mesmerized

Otherwise I would have dared

Guess the nature of our enterprise

Can't stop to sympathize, how you've been tantalized

I turned up in some harsh doomed city on another plane

I couldn't believe the room I got or the guests I entertained

I felt the dirty streets surround me

I let the buzzing swarm confound me

I gave money to ghosts, I insulted my hosts

I could never get off the stuff that spellbound me
