I’m torn
And ripped in temptations wake
I’ve lived
Half a life I’m desires slave
Of love
And of lust and of life he speaks
In thrall
I’m the victim until it sleeps
I’m bound
To this medusa blind or stone
I’m held
At the mercy of the unknown
Can’t shake
The black hearted, still I roam
Can’t change
How it started, the beast comes home

You choke like smoke
And define like a stain
You reign and the flood
Washes all but my name away
Temptation come my way
Temptation take the day

Hey hey
This is the lid to my coffin case
You lay
Six feet of deep just to separate
Pine tar
And pitch and a rusted hinge
What’s left
Of a life that temptation spent
Hey hey
You are the storm and the sun will drown
I love
To love the way that you let me down
And if
I ever strut bring me right back down
Remind
Me today that temptation’s still in town

You choke like smoke
And define like a stain
You reign and the flood
Washes all but my name away
Temptation come my way
Temptation take the day

Watch this

You choke like smoke
And define like a stain
You reign and the flood
Washes all but my name away
Temptation come my way
Temptation take the day
