we are surrounded by darkness
for we are blinded by our own eyes
we can't see the hidden truth
sold to us by beautiful lies

for evil seduces through lust
and lust is so easily controlled
by the power hidden within beauty
that makes the heart so easily fooled

but where can one put the blame?
when we ourselves made the flames,
that will burn the things we touch
seduced by beauty, controlled by lust
