Resist

Melissa Etheridge · Yes I Am [1993]

The sign says do not enter, no trespassing allowed

With visions of redemption, I walk against the crowd

The sun is white with envy, confusion's on the ground

Breathing soft and holy, temptation's only sound



A demon's day in madness kissed

I swear I never had it like this

Forbidden yet I cannot resist



Shocked in silent trances, our eyes search just to know

What makes flesh and body hunger for another burning soul

Conscience quiet pleading in the corner of my eye

But seeing is believing, all consequences fly



A demon's day in madness kissed

I swear I never had it like this

Forbidden yet I cannot resist



With fever I persist the rages of your kiss

My reckless heart in fist, and I cannot resist



A demon's day in madness kissed

I swear I never had it like this

A demon's day in madness kissed

I swear I never had it like this

Forbidden yet I cannot resist
