Lyrics
Temptation
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Cast among the waves of an ocean of hate,
His mind is like a storm
Torrents of thoughts drift aimlessly around
Yet they only focus on one thing
The moon embraces him with her cold light
As he is swallowed up by the clear and frosty night
Darkness flows through his quivering body
And intensifies his burning hate caused by
Temptation, projection - you become my scapegoat
Temptation, projection - I can't resist
The steel flashes proudly in the moonlight
As he flings himself on the dark silhouette.
Her frightened eyes open up wide with fear
While the knife penetrates the flesh.
I dream of her with another
I think of her with another
I see her with another
If I can't have her no one will
Temptation, projection - you become my scapegoat
Temptation, projection - I can't resist
Red flowers come out around the body
While her life slowly fades away.
All they ever had is ruined within seconds
Love is a sin
