Lyrics

Temptation
 Why won't you leave me alone?
 Lurking every corner, everywhere I go
 Self-control
 Don't turn your back on me now
 When I need you the most
 Constant pressure tests my will
 My will or my won't
 My self-control escapes from me, still
 Hypocrite
 How could you be so cruel
 And expect my faith in return?
 Resistance
 Is not as hard as it seems
 When you close the door
 I spent so long trusting in you
 I trust you forgot
 Just when I thought I believed in you
 What're you doing?
 What're you doing?
 It's time for me to deal
 Becoming all too real, living in fear
 Why did you lie and pretend?
 This has to come to an end
 I'll never trust you again
 It's time you made your amends
 Look in the mirror my friend
 That I haven't behaved as I should
 Everything you need is around you
 The only danger is inside you
 I thought you could control life
 But it's not like that, there are
 Things you can't control
 Let's stare the problem, right in the eye
 It's plagued me from coast to coast
 Racing the clock to please everyone
 All but the one who matters the most
 Reflections of reality are slowly coming into view
 How in the hell could you possibly forgive me?
 After all the hell I put you through
 It's time for me to deal
 Becoming all too real, living in fear
 Why'd I betray my friend?
 Lying until the end
 Living life, so pretend
 It's time to make my amends
 I'll never hurt you again
