lyrics
Temptation is a rose crowned thorn in the palm of your hand,
a scorpion that will not sting you till you say it can.
If the mouth speaks only lies, the mind becomes deceived.
Careless spiders trap themselves in the webs they weave.
Questions must be asked of our true intentions when we trap ourselves in our own inventions. What we think we know is not all there is, Earth as she grows old more erratic spins.
Questions must be asked of our true intentions when we find ourselves living in contention. What we think we know is not all there is, Earth as she grows old more erratic spins.
a scorpion that will not sting you till you say it can.
If the mouth speaks only lies, the mind becomes deceived.
Careless spiders trap themselves in the webs they weave.
Questions must be asked of our true intentions when we trap ourselves in our own inventions. What we think we know is not all there is, Earth as she grows old more erratic spins.
Questions must be asked of our true intentions when we find ourselves living in contention. What we think we know is not all there is, Earth as she grows old more erratic spins.
