Eve

(album: Asking Alexandria - 2017)

I am iniquity!

You think everything is perfect, silly girl
There's so much wonder here right in front of your eyes
What could it hurt? What's wrong with you?
Who the fuck is he? Why can't you know? Why can't you know?

And the walls came down and the Heavens opened
It's too late to claim your innocence
Once the trust is broken
It was just a little taste
It was so sweet
You couldn't imagine in your wildest dreams
You had to taste it, reach out and take it

For just a second consider why a man who cares so much
Would keep something so simple from someone so innocent?
Maybe he wants it all for himself cause he thinks you don't deserve
To feel all the joys that he feels that you'll never feel

Ask yourself why does he give you less when he takes more?
Ask yourself how being free is being locked inside these walls?
Maybe you're weak, or a mistake, or too emotional
Maybe you're not good enough for his world, maybe you never were

And the walls came down and the Heavens opened
It's too late to claim your innocence
Once the trust is broken
It was just a little taste
It was so sweet
You couldn't imagine in your wildest dreams
You had to taste it, reach out and take it

He'll never know, I'll never tell
You deserve, you deserve to be free
You have my word, or damn me to Hell
You deserve to know, you deserve to be free

And the walls came down and the Heavens opened
It's too late to claim your innocence
Once the trust is broken
It was just a little taste
It was so sweet
You couldn't imagine in your wildest dreams
You had to taste it, reach out and take it
You had to taste it, reach out and take it

Reach out and take it
