Now how can I move? I know the truth Temptation burns within me With all the force of a tempest at sea It calls with a sweet sound in my ear The temptation pulls me near Inches from my face as I turn away I can feel its breath as i hear it say "Come and partake of this pleasure" I say "I cannot if I wish to live forever" Angrily it shakes me in its clutches "You want this bad" it whispers as my face it touches "Mine is only a minor sin", "YES!" I proclaim "I wish to come but will not for sin is all the same" "Away from me you devil" I cry "For you do nothing but lie" Throwing me to the ground It disappears for now without a sound
