Colors of Temptation.

You see, temptation is a color
That comes in many shades
And its beauty remains pure
Because it never ever fades

It’s etched with white lies
And outlined with a black heart
Seducing you with crimson sin
Begging you to tear them apart

Teasing you with an innocent gesture
A flick of the wrist, a turn of the head
Before you know it, you’ve lost control
Before you know it, they’re already dead

It paints the perfect picture
Of all the things that I desire
And no matter how much it hurts
I cannot change what I require

Because temptation is a color
That comes in many shades
And its beauty remains pure
Because it never ever fades.
