Yield To Temptation Lyrics - After Forever

They told you not to yield to temptation 

And opened their arms, 

Make your own inferences... 

Inscrutable chaos in my head, inevitably 

Greed will take its toll 

Why? 

There's no place to hide 

Let me free myself 

The anathema's driving millions, 

Together in the pustules of our earth 

Greed and self-denial, 

The cause of unimpeded desecration of the truth 

They told you not to yield to temptation, 

But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin 

The phantom of damnation 

Threw her coat over humanity 

They told you not to yield to temptation, 

But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin 

They told you not to yield to temptation, 

But offered you only hypocrisy and ruin 

Captive in the shackles of this indoctrination, 

Depraved souls wished to be pure 

Delight in deformity, 

The last convulsions are building up 

A bridge to a new era 

The assumption of a faded supposition, 

Never shall I be a marionette 

The embrace that smothers...
