Highway to the grave
To the chambers of death
He has no sense following her to the slaughter
Seductive words led him astray
Breaking the covenant with his eyes,
drinking deeply of lust - seduced by smooth talk
Persuasive, O so persuasive
she led him astray
it will cost him his life
Many victims she has slaughtered
Unruly, defiant and brazen
In the dark of night she seeks out her prey
Highway to the grave
To the chambers of death
Seductive words never sounded so bitter,
knowing lust will cost him his life.
This is a warning.
Act on temptation drinking deeply of lust
It will cost you your life
Turn away from the
Highway to the grave
From the chamber of death
Keep the covenant with your eyes
Fortify your heart
Keep His commands and you will live.

it will cost him his life
Many victims she has slaughtered

In the dark of night she seeks out her prey
Highway to the grave

Seductive words never sounded so bitter,
knowing lust will cost him his life.
This is a warning.
Act on temptation drinking deeply of lust
It will cost you your life
Turn away from the
Highway to the grave
From the chamber of death
Keep the covenant with your eyes
Fortify your heart
Keep His commands and you will live.
From Proverbs 7 (NIV)
