Lyrics to If Darkness Had A Son by Metallica

[Refrain] Temptation Temptation Temptation Temptation [Verse 1] The beast still shouts for what it's yearning He stokes the fire, desire burning The never-ending quenchless craving The unforgiven misbehaving [Chorus] If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be [Refrain] Temptation Temptation Temptation Temptation [Verse 2] So paint your eyеs as black as sorrow Hide yourself behind tomorrow Thе nightmares search for infiltration In domination, captivation [Chorus] If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Return again to where it's darkest Dragging home this heathen harvest And all the children subjugated Manipulated, propagated [Chorus] If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water [Post-Chorus] If darkness had a son (Here I am) If darkness had a son (Here I am) If darkness had a son (Here I am) I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be
