The Seduction
Temptation's Embrace: A Journey Through Inner Turmoil
Lyrics
An ember burned
An initial spark or passion ignited.
A fire inside of me
This passion grew within me.
And then it turned
The passion transformed.
Into an empty sea
Transformed into a sense of emptiness.
It was then I felt a breeze
A moment of realization accompanied by a breeze.
Crawling over me
A subtle and unsettling sensation overcame me.
Whispers chanting in the wind
Whispers in the wind, suggestive and mysterious.
Beckoning me
Calling me, tempting me to follow.
Come and satisfy your lust for gold
Invitation to pursue material desires, particularly wealth.
Indulge in luxury until you're old
Encouragement to indulge in luxury and selfish pursuits.
Live a life just for you if you're so bold
Suggestion to live a self-centered life with boldness.
Just plant the seed and watch your fruits unfold
The idea of planting seeds (actions) with consequences unfolding.
Curiosity starts to set in
Feeling of curiosity emerging.
Temptation sinks it's teeth into my skin
Temptation taking a grip on the person.
I'm entranced by the voices within
Entranced by inner voices encouraging sinful actions.
Convincing me to manifest this sin
Being convinced to manifest sinful behavior.
I stare straight into my ghost
Facing one's own flaws and mistakes.
An embodiment of what I hate the most
A representation of what the person dislikes the most.
But behind it lies my deepest cries
Behind the disliked aspect lies deep emotional pain.
Immortalized in fire light
Pain immortalized in the metaphorical fire.
Burning brightly just to spite me
The pain burning brightly as a form of defiance.
My ever fading conscience plagues me
The fading conscience plaguing the individual.
The seed of envy grows within me
Envy growing within, causing internal conflict.
I can't remember why
A sense of forgetfulness regarding insecurities.
I felt so insecure before I arrived
Recollection of feeling insecure before a certain point.
I am under a spell
Feeling bewitched or captivated by a spell.
Entranced beneath this veil
Being entranced and obscured beneath a metaphorical veil.
Yet I lack the desire to escape this hell
Lack of desire to escape the challenging situation.
No more hiding from my sins
A decision to stop hiding from personal wrongdoings.
I feel my conscience become thin
The conscience becoming less substantial.
I embrace this impudence
Acceptance and embracing of impudence or shamelessness.
No more need for sentiment
Renunciation of the need for sentimentality.
No more hiding from my sins
Continuation of the theme of facing personal sins.
I feel my conscience become thin
Further thinning of the conscience.
I embrace this impudence
Continued acceptance of shamelessness.
No more need for sentiment
Reiteration of the rejection of sentimentality.
I don't wanna fight this fire today
Expression of reluctance to confront the challenges.
Can't I stay here just to get away
Desire to remain in a state of escapism.
I'm blinded by this escape
Feeling blinded by the escape and its allure.
I don't ever want to leave this place
Expressing a reluctance to leave the comforting place.
So I'll just lie here talking in the wind
Lying down and talking to the wind in solitude.
There's no one else around to call a friend
A sense of loneliness without any companionship.
Just the cries of souls cast aside
Recognition of shared suffering and rejection.
They sealed their fate the same as you and I
Reflection on the shared fate of others and oneself.
