Ashes In Hand Lyrics


Sex kills, sex kills
Sex kills, sex kills
Sex kills, sex kills
Sex kills, sex killsSex kills, sex kills
Sex kills, sex kills
Sex kills, sex kills
Sex killsWe 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 comprehendThe ultimate act of sharing is reduced
To the ultimate act of taking
Seconds of trembling flesh is not worth
Years of inner sufferingTaken away, taken away
Sex kills
Taken away, taken away
Sex killsDo my eyes betray what I feel and see?
Exploitation leads to the abandoned seed
This is no sexual liberation

We have accepted desecrationAnd when they've taken and taken, and 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 bodyTaken away, taken away
Sex kills
Taken away, taken away
Sex killsI would rather seek the peace of the self then play
The games that force the scars of lifelong insecurity
Frightening desires for dominant position
When all we should be doing is lovingTaken away, taken away
Sex kills
Taken away, taken away
Sex killsSex is a weapon
Sex can kill
Sex is a weapon
Sex can kill

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Founded in Los Angeles in the late 80's as part of the thriving hardcore scene, downset has evolved into an icon of sorts. As the original blenders of rap, funk, hardcore, punk, metal, and socially aware lyrics, they drew influences from Black Flag to Black Sabbath, Public Enemy to Bob Marley. Becoming a huge draw, the industry took notice and they caught the attention of Mercury/PolyGram Records and released their self titled debut in 1994.
