The Death In Me – Temptress lyrics

Oh, wicked temptress you know how to please
Our pleasure so shortly lived
Ravage and mutilation in our hearts
Seeded with the desire to destroy
Embedded with the Holy Ghost
Our soul over flows with compassion
Circling, Circling, we're so lost and confused
Is this really what we have become?

I need my God above
Our Emanuel
Rebuild us, repair us
Make us your messengers
Our God above, our Emanuel
Let your will be done

Follow the path so easily strayed
She finds her way back around

Back for more, we reap and we sew
Our own fate repeating
We can never learn
We crave the bitter taste of cold reality
Oh God please tell me why!
I'm so tired of the same trends
The same damned woman finding her way to my heart
The lady of suffering so seductive
But of this cycle, I'll have no more
So keep me from your I'll intentions,
From your worldly struggle
I have my God... He's been waiting
So patiently... For far too long

Our Emanuel
Rebuild us, repair us
Make us your messengers
Our God above, our Emanuel
Show us light
Show us sight
We crave you grace
We crave to see you at those pearly gates
Deliver us from this broken race of these broken men.
