the wolf and the sheep

alec benjamin

everybody has to get older

even jenny

she's just nineteen

young and naive

she wants to find a way to be endless

fight the science

in defiance

and be timeless

silly little girl who tried to live forever

to live forever

gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure

oh

the bitter pleasure

wicked little boy who tried to steal her treasure

for the bitter pleasure

now they're cursed forever

cursed together

and if you could see

the look in her eyes

the wolf wore the sheep

as a perfect disguise

and she can't believe

that she fell for his lies

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

and as she got a little bit older

look at jenny

now she's ninety

still looks nineteen

and all she knows to do is surviving

staying alive and

now she's crying

'cause she's not dying

silly little girl who tried to live forever

to live forever

gave away her soul to buy a bit of pleasure

oh

the bitter pleasure

wicked little boy who tried to steal her treasure

for the bitter pleasure

now they're cursed forever

cursed together

and if you could see

the look in her eyes

the wolf wore the sheep

as a perfect disguise

and she can't believe

that she fell for his lies

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

and if you could see

the look in her eyes

the wolf wore the sheep

as a perfect disguise

and she can't believe

that she fell for his lies

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price

he promised forever

but she never knew the price
