Rozz Williams - Temptation lyrics

Lead us not… unto temptation Lead us not… unto temptation Lead us not… unto temptation What if the earth opened up beneath our feet? Then all tomorrows might ignite on borrowed wings And what if we saw through a million eyes set free? Would we see bright light surrounding, cleansing thee? Lead us not Electric barbed wire – Rattle out that cage Lead us not Endless shadows that would bind you in blind rage Lead us not What if the language that was spoken was not our own? Then you could bless my weary body-tongue to bone And what if love was but a breath while falling down? I might think in lesser shades while trailing you All from palest gray to paler blue Now have you found it? Do you like it? Yes, I do What if I s**ed you to dry fault and what if you let me? Would you because what I no longer wished to see? Empty core, obsidian An iridescent red fire strangling you And what if every dream you left behind was plausible? Then time would tear itself asunder, nasty wound A splitting image, jagged members dead too soon What if you were not yourself, but bigger than? Then I would surely fall in love with you… again Lead us not… unto temptation
