  • Another hungry look in her eyes again
    Pacing the floor
    The hunt begins
    Skin-tight leather provides my pleasure
    Wake my fear, surge wit the pressure
    Walk away and leave forever, do I dare?

    Raise my eyes, she stands
    Holding out healing hands
    Are you happy now?

    I walk the thin line for you
    Do just what you say to
    With fear as my friend
    I walk the thin line one more time for you

    Addictive face pretending, don't speak the word
    Forbidden sin relenting, I barely heard
    Screams of entry blur my vision
    Wake my fear of divine intervention
    Crawl away and bleed forever, if you dare

    Hand on mouth the game goes on
    Love, our stage to play upon
    Are you happy now?

    I walk the thin line for you
    Do just what you say to
    With fear as my friend
    I walk the thin line one more time for you

    I walk the thin line for you
    Do just what you say to
    I walk the thin line for you
    Do just what you say to,
    With fear as my friend,
    I walk the thin line one more time for you Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER DEGARMO, GEOFF TATE, GEOFFERY TATE, MICHAEL WILTON
