The temptation of love and lust that steams from your body,

that wide eye smile that torture's the desire of my body,

i want you but then again i don't,

sometimes its the forbidden fruit we all crave to know,

its a deadly desire, that'll kill the roots of the soul, it's forbidden fruit we all crave to know,

i can't have you that i do know, its the temptation that i wish to not know, if it grabs ahold my life will unfold, and im scared the world will never know,

that it wasn't my choice to be gay on the low!
