I crave the things I shouldn’t
And I’m tempted everyday with more
I do things that the sinnerman tells me to do
But I know I shouldn’t

Stop.

I tell it to myself but it’s not what I do

Lying
Thieving
Cheating
Suicide
Self-harm
***

Why don’t I stop?

Because the temptation whispers in my ear, taunting me, and leading me to do these things.

Why don’t you stop?

Because I don’t want to.
