Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In the temple (I was an offering)
Of the heartless (I was an offering)
I was humbled (I was an offering)
And reborn into a god
[Verse 2]
My dear, old, sensitive soul is just
A tyrant who enslaves
All those around him
To make certain he
Is hurt always
[Verse 3]
I don't need a reason, baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close, clap me in iron
Come on, Caligulove me
Come on, Caligulove me
[Verse 4]
You can hear it (As an offering)
If you're a good girl (As an offering)
A righteous choir is singing (As an offering)
No, screaming as they burn
[Verse 5]
Darling, there are no taboos in lust
My veins course blood that's so venomous
When the heartless hears a heartbeat
He's jealous, so jealous
[Verse 6]
I don't need a reason, baby
Put your arms around me
Hold me real close, clap me in iron
Come on, Caligulove me
[Verse 7]
I already gotcha, baby
Put yourself upon me
I'm in lust, a slave to desire
When you Caligulove me
[Verse 8]
Come on, love me
Hold me real close, love me
Need your Caligulove, girl
Caligulove
