Father of Temptation

Welcome my friends, come meet the father of temptation.
A man of many faces, that often lives inside your eyes.
Deep within, so deep within your pale, yet radiant luster, resides the father of my dreams.

Hello my friends, do you hear my desperate calling,
or does my whispered voice fall mute upon your ears?
Lost in these tarnished years, lost in these tarnished years.

Like a ghost of my past, your image, so chillingly haunting.
And me, I just wait for some sign from above but that day never comes.

Welcome my friends, feel free to walk right in.
This battered door, like my heart, is wide open.
Welcome my friend, feel free to walk right in.
Dismiss the key, you hold it.
You're my dearest father of temptation.

Like a ghost from my past, you’re a vision of hope everlasting.
And me, I just gaze at the stars for an answer.
But truth's voice never calls, no, truth's voice never calls.
Hello my friend.

Welcome my friend.
Like a ghost of my past, like a ghost of my past.
