Feel the heat from the midday sun
Cuttin' through the blinds at a quarter to one
Head is pounding from the evening's thrall
Forget if you could, but you can't recall
Glassy eyed with a heavy chest
Go and face the day wearin' last night's best
Head is pounding and the cold track wails
The beat of heavy metal on the southbound rail
Knockin' on the door with a fist clenched tight
Pebbles on the window in the middle of the night
Callin' out your name but it don't ring right
TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION...
Sittin' on the steps in the midday sun
Tryin' to fight the feeling, but it's already won
It's weighing heavy as you wallow in the bliss
Stuck up in your head with the static and the hiss
Knockin' on the door with a fist clenched tight
Pebbles on the window in the middle of the night
Callin' out your name but it don't ring right
TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION...
Sweet sedation
Calling out your name but it don't ring right
Sweet fixation
Whispering your name but it don't ring right
Knockin' on the door with a fist clenched tight
Pebbles on the window in the middle of the night
Callin' out your name but it don't ring right
TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION... TEMPTATION...
