Savage took several years to write. I wrote half the lyrics in an intense visceral moment in 2009 and then lost my mojo and put it aside to pick it up in August of 2011 when I finished it.

Lyrics

Your simian heart pounds so savage
It teems with longing
Jungle, it roars in your veins
Lusting, wild it's songing
Dance with the night my gypsy
Dance with the night
I want to dance with your ecstasy
And die as I come alive
The fire, it flows through your limbs
Winding heat is captured
Secrets that ripple from hips
Holding me enraptured
Dance with the dark my gypsy
Dance with the dark
I want to dance with your ecstasy
And die as I come alive
Savage the wild entices
Savage the heart's devices
Savage the drums are pounding
Savage the fire is sounding
Take me
Oh come to the sacrificial edge of love

Your succulent eyes lure me
Into their hungry bower
Sensual tears, lushly lipped
Of me devour
Sing to the night, my siren
Sing with the night
I want to sing with your rhapsody
And die as I come alive

Your sinuous back arches
Coils to the sacred holding
Sways to the flesh flowered beats
Piercing cries that smolder
Sing to the night, my siren
Sing with the night
I want to sing with your rhapsody
And die as I come alive
Savage the breath is gasped
So savage within my grasp
Savage the pulse crescendos
Savage my heart surrenders
Take me
Oh come to the sacrificial edge of love

Savage, so savage
Savage
Savage
