Lyrics Temptation - ASM, A.S.M.

Temptation

Some days go by in the nautical heat
High seas, commands the fleet
When all of a sudden he froze as though hypnotized
By voices seductively sweet, beckoning
Lets go of himself and his routing
Something of a man possessed now about him
Tells his comrades proceed without him
He rows to the shore unsure of his ears
Unable to stray nor veer from his course
And the source of the sound draws near
Headlong into the song
Enchanted, abandons his last inhibitions
Headlong into the sultry song of the sirens
Reeling him into the island
Magnetism
I can’t resist her speech
Without moving her lips
I proceed with confidence as if filled with knowledge of her intent
Her relentless gaze has me in a daze
But what’s this?
More silhouettes visible through the mist
Finds himself engulfed in a swarm of the sweetest creatures
He ever had the pleasure of encountering, skin like silk
And the taste of the dew on their lips as they yield
Taking his plough to the field
Plentiful ripe for the harvest crop
Days fade to a haze and he savors every last drop
Many moons have come and gone
And although the lust is strong
It’s Ashira for whom I long
It’s all gone wrong
I bet Rongon has stopped the rebellion
I gotta be a man and go help them
I gotta get my boat to the coast
Or the whole thing is never gonna come together
I should’ve known better
I should’ve never had this endeavor
But whatever, I gotta make it count now
Gotta make the crown bow before me or bow out
Lay the plow down
Let the sound of the waves drown out temptation and sail now
Only one man in the land whom destiny chose that could conclude the tale now
Through delirium he knew what to do
Reclaim sidium, command the troops
The rocks on the sands will proudly stand
When he docks in his homeland anew
Despite his brief lapse of the flesh
Induced by the sirens song
They’ll know his name when he meets dry land
And they’ll know it when he gone
