Lyrics

Aniello-Reede-Tanner
Inside closed quarters, night's calling under blood red skies
This madness starts burning, the victim of a strange desire
Mistaken, we follow, restless emotions take you down down down down …
Unwilling, still hunger for lustful pleasures I have found
He's a good man in a bad time
He's a good man-man in a bad time
Soft voices seduce you, a butterfly in a spider's web
Infectious, behaviour, you're damned to do it all again and again and again and again ...
He's a good man in a bad time
He's a good man-man in a bad time
Don't cry, darling, I'll be with you
All night, darling, deep within you
He's a good man-man in a bad time
He's a good man-man in a bad time
He's a good man-man in a bad time
He's a good man-man in a bad time
He's a good man in a bad time
Written by: J. Reede, Marc Tanner, Ron Aniello
