Temptation
Temptation is a being
That forces us to explore
Enticing secret desires
That keeps us wanting more
He always knows our weakness
And promises things we crave
Our addictions all run wild
Til we become his slave
Temptation knows no boundaries
He cares not who we are
He leads us down a endless path
Until we've gone too far
He's known to come in many forms
And wears a thin disguise
He's shrouded in deception
To make us believe his lies
The next time you are tempted
Don't follow his instruction
Or you will surely find yourself
On a path to sudden destruction
