Tempter

[verse]

It's creeping, like frozen liquid in my veins,

It's feeding, on my anger on my pain.

It's haunting, shadow with malicious grin.

It's wanting, me to just give in.

[pre chorus]

You're tempting me a thousand time,

To cease my hope embrace the crime.

It shows the world's an evil hell,

It holds me tight within it's spell.

[chorus]

Embrace me now,

It tempts, it screams.

All guards are down,

I'm no longer me.

Embrace the sin,

it says with a chill.

You cannot win,

now obey my will.

[Verse 2]

I feel it in the crackle under my skin,

When the house goes quiet and the lights grow thin.

It talks in my head when I'm stuck alone,

Leaves its cold little mark in the bones I own.

[pre chorus]

You're tempting me a thousand time,

To cease my hope embrace the crime.

It shows the world's an evil hell,

It holds me tight within it's spell.

[chorus]

Embrace me now,

It tempts, it screams.

All guards are down,

I'm no longer me.

Embrace the sin,

it says with a chill.

You cannot win,

now obey my will.

[verse]

I lock the front door and hear it rattle back,

A radio hiss cuts clean through the blackout crack.

My hands won't steady on the keys in my lap,

And that thing in my head keeps circling back.

[pre chorus]

You're tempting me a thousand time,

To cease my hope embrace the crime.

It shows the world's an evil hell,

It holds me tight within it's spell.

[chorus]

Embrace me now,

It tempts, it screams.

All guards are down,

I'm no longer me.

Embrace the sin,

it says with a chill.

You cannot win,

now obey my will.

[final chorus]

Embrace me now,

It tempts, it screams.

All guards are down,

I'm no longer me.

Embrace the sin,

it says with a chill.

You cannot win,

now obey my will.
