The Showdown - Temptation Come My Way Lyrics

I'm torn and I'm ripped in temptations wake
I've lived half a life I'm desires slave
Of love and of lust and of life he speaks
In thrall I'm the victim until it sleeps
I'm bound to this Medusa blind or stone
I'm held at the mercy of the unknown
Can't shake the black hearted, still I roam
Can't change how it started, the beast comes home

You choke like smoke
And define like a stain
You reign and the flood
Washes all but my name away
Temptation come my way
Temptation takes the day
Hey hey this is the lid to my coffin case
You lay six feet of deep just to separate
Pine tar and pitch and a rusted hinge

What's left of a life that temptation spent
Hey, hey, you are the storm and the sun will drown.
I love, to love the way that you let me down.
And if I ever strut bring me right back down
Remind me today that temptations still in town
