Last Temptation
Last Temptation: A Soul's Descent and Redemption
Lyrics
Everytime I think of you
Reflects on thoughts about the person being addressed.
I get the same old sinking feeling
Experiences a familiar feeling of despair or heaviness when thinking about the person.
I think of a garden, so still
Imagines a tranquil, quiet garden.
I think of a cross upon a hill
Visualizes a cross, possibly symbolizing suffering or sacrifice, placed on a hill.
And I think you know what I'm sayin'
Implies the person being addressed might understand the feelings being conveyed.
So as these chords descend
Refers to the descending musical chords.
So I shall follow them
Expresses a willingness to follow these musical chords.
They holler "catch me if you can"
Indicates a challenge to be pursued or caught.
They holler "catch me, holler "catch me"
Reiterates the challenge to catch or pursue.
Baby, I'm goin' down
Expresses a feeling of descending into a negative or difficult situation.
Get yer hands up off me, girl
Requests to be released or freed from a restrictive situation by a girl or a woman.
I think I know my way around by now
Confidence in knowing one's way through situations.
They come to the party
Mentions the arrival of people at a party.
One by one
Individuals arriving one after another.
Until it's done, until it's done
Continues until completion.
My enemy
Refers to an adversary or someone perceived as an opponent.
You must think you have the best of me
Suggests the adversary believes they have control or dominance over the singer.
But you must know me to be vain
Recognizes a certain level of vanity in the singer's character but implies that true understanding is necessary to comprehend their actions.
To leave this undone would be such a shame
Leaving things unresolved would be regrettable or disappointing.
