(Tormented Souls - A Song For The Devil)

By Danw

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Welcome to the man with different faces, A lover to the family of which he disgraces, He laughs when they cry . To make them learn He hides as they die To watch them burn To god we pray in desperate measures Gone insane with the pain of pleasure Death we pay, is the price for life Livin’ on the edge of the blade of a knife Watching people die for leisure Tormenting of their souls brings pleasure Your covers keep the demons out But who is their to hear you shout Close your eyes and hide your fear Close your mind cos’ the truth is here Lights on , Lights off Can’t get away The memories gone But the pain remains Lights on , Lights off Can’t stop the pain You can wash it away But still it stains Close your eyes , and open your mind To he who seeks , The beasts he finds Never get away can’t leave it behind You cannot escape the demons in your mind In your mind You know you can’t stop......... Lights on , Lights off Come beg on your knees, There’s no escape , On your fear it feeds The beast , come feed the beast Feed the beast Yes , Feed the beast The beast in your mind Written December 22nd, 2000 © on Feb 28 2002 02:19 AM PST   20 • 0 • 10
