Lyrics

His enemies fell around him
The lion roared no more
The medium of madness
The artist worked in war

His enemy’s accomplice
Disguised the enmity
He spoke of sweet betrayal
As he drank himself to sleep

In this poison, in this pleasure
My Delilah is in me

The bliss of never knowing
Sheer anxiety
Came crashing into chaos
As the blinded hero cried

In this poison, in this pleasure
My Delilah is in me
In this treason, in this treasure
My Delilah is in me

Even as my chains are breaking
And the walls are coming down
There’s no escaping
All that’s underground

In this poison, in this pleasure
My Delilah is in me
In this treason, in this treasure
My Delilah is in me
In damnation, in salvation
My Delilah is in me
In temptation, in redemption
My Delilah is in me
