Dark Temptation

I feel nothing as I lye here
Waiting for something  to kill my despair 
I'm burning inside to sick to care
I take a drag of my cigarette
I'm infected with your lies
I'm stupid to believe in you
But I guess that's why your still here
There are reasons for everything they say
People die each day 
I take my blade drag it across my skin
Temptation will always win 
Tonight I will find satisfaction 
In mutilation
