Salvation

So unexpected, snapping me back into place
When once I wandered, not quite finding my space
How did it come to this?

And yet here you are and I have to hold back
Struggling to cling onto the resolve that I lack
How did it come to this?

This blissful distraction without limitation
Drives me to indulge in the greatest temptation
I trust that you suffer an equal sense of frustration
Why does it feel as if I've found my salvation?

I find myself reining in the fiend within me
Burning from those urges I dread setting free
Why would I run away from this?

Bittersweet desire engulfs me in flame
I cry out at night, calling out your name
Why would I run away from this?

This blissful distraction without limitation
Drives me to indulge in the greatest temptation
I trust that you suffer an equal sense of frustration
Why does it feel as if I've found my salvation?
