Temptation to Exist

Temptation to exist

Give me another kiss

Tell me how you love me

A mesmerizing kiss

That I can't resist

Say I'm the way you want me

So I can breathe your perfume

Dancing with you around the room

Long after a masquerade

Stripped of facade and costume

The drag with being born

It's really not a thorn

Baby it's a dagger

Most people would deny

Say it's a piece of pie

To you it doesn't matter

I hear about the sad affairs

Up on the heights of despair

Someone's always perishing

By the self they have assumed

Temptation to exist

Obsession to persist

Death-defying romance

Give me another kiss

Show me what I've missed

Baby, since our last dance

So I can get back in tune

Dancing with you around the room

Long after a masquerade

No facade, no costume
