I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The first thing that she saidTemptation
Greets you like your naughty mate
The one that used to get you in botherBut one you could never bring yourself to hate
& she said we've got that spark
That only lights a fuse
Helps you see in the dark
But it's a sight you'll lose whenThe temptation
Greets you like your naughty friend
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
TemptationGreets you like your naughty mate
One that made you steal & set things on fire
But one you haven't seen of late
& I said that kind of talk
Only adds intrigueTo the cauldron of thought
It's already exceeding
Temptation
The very thing that held her backI don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are deadI don't ever want to hate you
It's not part of the plan
So keep your charm where I can't see it
& your hands where I can
We used to be in tight
Me & my naughty friends
Caused bare madness in the ends
I mean day 'n' night
We robbed, we stole, we loved to fight
Smoking, drinking, joyriding
Drugs, thugs, not law-abiding
Reckless, gangsters, no direction
No sign of correction
But then I switched it up
Changed my ways
What the hell
Like, oh my days
But like my naughty friends
They're not phased
Can't believe that this music paysSee no reason why we can't doAll the things we've always done
Still, in my heart, I know that's just what
But its hard to fight the temptation, son
The panic will fall down around you
If you don't do what I say
I don't ever want to hate you
So don't show me your bed
The only roads are cul-de-sacs
The only ends are dead
I don't ever want to hate you
It's not part of the plan
So keep your charm where I can't see it
& your hands where I can
