Tempted
ENSNARED BY A TEMPTRESS,
YOU PAY THE PRICE,
YOU PLAY WITH YOUR LIFE,
LIKE A GAMBLER DOES HIS DICE,
PULLED ON BY A NEED AN URGE SO STRONG,
LIKE A SAILOR IS DRAWN TO A MERMAIDS SONG,
YOU KNOW IT KILLS BUT ALL THE SAME,
YOU ALWAYS RETURN LIKE A MOTH TO A FLAME
OH HOW I HOPE AND HOW I PRAY,
MY LOVE FOR LIFE RETURNS SOME DAY
