Lyrics Venus - Laura Mvula, Becca Stevens

Venus

Ariadne’s after me
Hungry for my harmony
Lost and bound in agony
Devouring dreams to feed her need
She weaves a web of trickery
To feast upon my sanity
But cowers at the sight of love
So rise above…
Like venus rose from water, from water
She roses from water, from water
Ariadne’s lost her way
In the maze she made to toy with me
Where she’s still toiling after me
But the beasr can’t have what she can’t reach
Venus rose from water, from water
She roses from watern from water
She’s a fugitive
With a plot to steal the feeling out of everything
She can smell you weakness
If you fall then she will feast like a
Black hole in a labyrinth
With nothing but time to find the negative in everything
If she pulls you in
Rise above
Venus rose from water, from water
She roses from water from water
She roses from water from water
She roses from water from water
She roses, she roses, roses, roses, she roses
From water, from water
Like venus, she roses (from water)
Like venus, she roses (from water)
