Flesh and the Power It Holds

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
I told you once but I will say it again
When you live the flesh, it's the beginning of the end

[Refrain]
It will take you in, it will spit you out
Behold the flesh and the power it holds

[Verse 2]
Passion is a poison laced with pleasure bitter-sweet
One of many faces that hides deep beneath

[Refrain]
It will take you in and it will spit you out
Behold the flesh and the power it holds

[Pre-Chorus]
Touch, taste, breathe, consumed

[Chorus]
Deja-vu, already knew from the first encounter
But now I know to let go of words to speak no more
Like a wind upon your face you can't see it but you know it's there
When beauty shows its ugly face just be prepared

[Interlude]
[Guitar Solo: Chuck Schuldiner]

[Verse 3]
Passion burns like fire carried by the wind
The end of a time, a time to begin

[Refrain]
It will take you in, it will spit you out
Behold the flesh and the power it holds

[Verse 4]
It builds you up one way, and tears you right back down
A time to begin, the end of a time

[Refrain]
It will take you in, it will spit you out
Behold the flesh and the power it holds

[Pre-Chorus]
Touch, taste, breathe, consumed

[Chorus]
Deja-vu, already knew from the first encounter
But now I know to let go of words to speak no more
Like a wind upon your face you can't see it but you know it's there
When beauty shows its ugly face just be prepared
