Ashes In Hand - Downset

Sex kills!

We will look into the eyes of the other and lie and say that we love them

Then strip the innocence given and create destruction we will never truly

comprehend

The ultimate act of sharing is reduced to the ultimate act of taking

Seconds of trembling flesh is not worth years of inner suffering

Taken away!

Sex kills!

Do my eyes betray what I feel and see.

Exploitation leads to the abandoned seed

This is no sexual liberation we have accepted desecration

And when they’ve taken!

And taken!

Beyond hope and healing left alone with your feelings

Your mourning will have no mercy.

It will steal from so much more than your body

Taken away!

Sex kills!

I would rather seek the peace of self

Then play the games that force the scars of lifelong insecurity

Frightening desires for dominant position when all we should be doing is loving!

Taken away!

Sex kills!

Sex is a weapon!
