I slide into your
garden
And lurk behind the
trees,
Watching each and every one of you,
As you laugh and joke
and tease.
So happy are you all,
In this evergreen Eden,
Living life to the
full,
And enjoying your
freedom.
But it's a freedom so
white,
So plain and without
depth.
No layers to your
happiness,
Just a superficial
mess.
I'll offer shade to
your party,
Some truth, some lies,
some sting.
A dash of black to
drain away
The joy from
everything.
A single touch from me
And you're caught
within my grasp.
My venom surges through
your veins
Like the poison of an
Asp.
Take a bite out of the
apple,
They're really good for
you!
I'm offering this fruit
to take,
So decide what you're
gonna do.
Take this apple from my
hands,
Bite the tender
skin.
Then let me lead you
from the garden
Into a world of Sin.
