Temptation - Compos Mentis

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
