Tempted

by natalie   Aug 6, 2007


I hate this constant temptation
I have to resist
Or it will drag me down
And never let me go

If i take it
It would be fine for a while
But as the time passes
Faster and faster

Eventually
It will ruin everything
Everything that i have
I know that

It will hurt so many people
That i love
And who loves me
I don't want to do that

I sometimes think
It will be fine
I reassure myself
Again and again

There are too many negatives
And not enough positives
It is pulling me in
It's tempting

Do i dare
touch it
do i dare
take it

It's going to be so hard
to resist it's call this time
So many thoughts in my head
So many doubts

I don't want to
Go down that road again
craving it
needing it more with each day

I can't get rid
Of them temptation though
It's all around me
Calling my name

I am so tempted
It's so easy to get in to that routine
I will put up a fight though
I have to

Because of you
I don't want to hurt you
Don't want to ruin what we have got

You are the reason
I'm going to fight it
The temptation
Will always be there though

But you will get me through
I know you will
You don't have to do anything
You just have to stay here
with me
And say nothing
