Temptation of Indulgence

Divides and conquers my mind

An elegy for fading youth

Welcome to mankind



If you provide the spleen

Then I'll provide the ideal

If I provide a puppet

Will you provide the strings?



Revel in the glory

Of a coming of age

Decades of suppression

Released in a rage



Have mercy



How can I seize the day when it is dusk?

You provide the pull, and I'll provide the thrust

Romance is nothing but a sack of lies

But it is truth which I have come to despise



Bacchanal



If I provide the scene

Will you provide the ordeal?

If I provide a crown

Will you provide a queen?
