Temptation

(album: Dreams Of Ordinary Men - 1986)

I've got no stamina to keep up this running around
I've got no mortal courage to pick myself up off this ground
I look around and see the people fighting every day
Fighting for the rights that belong to them in every way
I read the papers and get no satisfaction from the truth
I make decisions based on fallacy
Imagine that I'm right
My judgement suffered from some effect of nature's spiteful ways
Ooh, their tricks and temptation lead us to pursue our evil days

I'm just a slave to this frustration
I just can't ask for help
I can't control myself

Temptation
Lead me to temptation
Temptation
Find a new temptation
Temptation

I see people with no hope go on and on against the odds
And here I am just letting go with everything I've got

I've paid the price for my salvation
Still I wonder why
I'm never satisfied

Temptation
Can't resist temptation
Temptation
Always this temptation
Temptation
Lead me to temptation

I'm just a slave to this frustration
I just can't ask for help
I can't control myself

Temptation
Why lead me to temptation
Temptation
Find a new temptation
Temptation
Can't resist temptation
Temptation
Always this temptation
Temptation
Lead me to temptation
Temptation
Find a new temptation
Temptation
Can't resist temptation
Temptation
Always this temptation
