Fire and Steam

Track 9 from the album C-90 by Dave Egan

Lyrics:

Fire and Steam

She draws me in with siren’s thrall

She wraps me up to seal my fall

She knows my longings as she grows my fears

She feeds on lust washed down with tears

She casts emotion (she reels me in)

No competition (fools seldom win)

Spews ammunition (and so death begins)

Of rage and deception

With fire and steam she has brought us to extremes

She has torn out our hearts. Now we’re worlds apart… we are worlds apart.

She tracks my footsteps and my every key

She sits on (watches) every page I see

She gives me comfort in echoic room

As she tells her master of his doom

She leaves me wrestling (she feels me writhe)

In spun threads of emotion (to its source she climbs)

With slow evisceration (she bleeds me dry)

She bleeds me for her potion

With fire and steam she has brought us to our knees

Yet we still feel the need to be hirelings at her feet
