Lyrics

You sold me out
You Philistine
You turned my bed against me
You cut me out
Of your magazine
You hedged your bet against me

Get too close you burn
Get too far you freeze
Never will you learn
I′m on my knees

Your favorite pariah
You're all I need

Be my Delilah
Be my Delilah

Chalk line city runaway
Madame of the Midway
My inner ear
You stow away
Siren of the Sound

Get too close you burn
Get too far you freeze
Never will you learn
I′m on my knees

Your favorite pariah
I'm nobody's Messiah
Draw me into your fire
You′re all I need

Be my Delilah
Be my Delilah

New ropes, never used before
Pinned tight, headed to the floor
Bow strings, I am at the door
New hopes, ever used at first
Been tight, wedded to the earth
Purse strings, I am only worth
A thousand silver

Be my Delilah
Be my Delilah
Be my Delilah
Be my Delilah
