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
