Curiosity Kills

Curiosity kills 
		Without regret
		Misgievious ways
		Tempt our innocence

		Intentions crumble
		Under lack of judgment
		Harmless disgiuses
		Hide what hurts inside

		Sunken ethics
		Can redirect moral purity
		A soiled sinner
		To be forgiven

		Cravings control
		The need to know
		One mistake made
		To hopefully learn your lesson

		Powerless wills
		urge to give in
		How can one wrong
		Look and seem so right

		Confusion in our thoughts
		Distraction takes our attention
		Turning uncertainty to stir
		round and round in our heads

		Unfocused points of view make a mess of our minds
