"Succubus Blues" (LONE WOLF BLUES)

[Intro - Slide guitar only] [Verse] Church quit calling years ago Guess I quit answering too God left this room a long time back You just moved into the vacancy You smiled like someone holding matches In a house already full of smoke You never had to make me follow Hell... I already knew the road [Pre-Chorus] You never lied about what you were I lied about what I needed [Chorus] Come ruin me, beautiful You don't even have to try I was cracked Long before you came around Dig your fingers through the scar tissue Find whatever's still alive Guess that's just... The succubus blues [Verse 2] You came wearing somebody else's face Called yourself relief Wrapped your hands around my shoulders Felt a whole lot like belief Now I hear you in the silence Every room still says your name I'd walk barefoot through the fire Just to feel that hurt again [Bridge] Maybe every god I ever chased Was just another version of myself Wearing somebody else's face So I wouldn't have to call for help Maybe love and self-destruction Were never different things Maybe I just gave them different names So I could keep worshipping [Final Chorus] Come ruin me, beautiful You don't even have to try I stopped looking for salvation The day hope said goodbye Dig your fingers through the scar tissue Find whatever still remains I came here looking for oblivion... Guess that's just The succubus blues. [Long slide guitar outro]
