[Verse 1]
Temptation of Indulgence
Divides and conquers my mind
An elegy for fading youth
Welcome to mankind

[Chorus]
If you provide the spleen
Then I'll provide the ideal
If I provide a puppet
Will you provide the strings?

[Verse 2]
Revel in the glory
Of a coming of age
Decades of suppression
Released in a rage

[Chorus]
If you provide the spleen
Then I'll provide the ideal
If I provide a puppet
Will you provide the strings?

[Bridge]
Have mercy
[Verse 3]
How can I seize the day when it is dusk?
You provide the pull, and I'll provide the thrust

[Verse 4]
Romance is nothing but a sack of lies
But it is truth which I have come to despise
Bacchanal
Bacchanal
Bacchanal
Yeah

[Chorus]
If I provide the scene
Will you provide the ordeal?
If I provide a crown
Will you provide a queen?

[Verse 4]
Revel in the glory
Of a coming of age
Decades of suppression
Released in a rage
