"Resist" lyrics

"Resist"

The sign says, "Do not enter"
"No trespassing allowed"
With visions of redemption
I walk against the crowd
The sun is white with envy
Confusion on the ground
Breathing soft and holy
Temptation's only sound

A demon's day in madness kissed
I swear, I never had it like this
Forbidden, yet I cannot resist

Shocked in silent trances
Our eyes search just to know
What makes flesh and body hunger
For another burning soul
Conscience quiet pleading
In the corner of my eye
But seeing is believing
All consequences fly

A demon's day in madness kissed
I swear, I never had it like this
Forbidden, yet I cannot resist

With fever I persist
The rages of your kiss
My reckless heart in fist
And I cannot resist

Yeah, yeah
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
Eh, yeah

A demon's day in madness kissed
I swear, I never had it like this
A demon's day in madness kissed
Forbidden, yet I cannot resist
