The Demon
Wherever you go, behind it stays
Your tears, your pain, torture it craves
The guileless smile melts their heart
But only it’s victims know the other side of the card.
It kills for pleasure, wants your ambitions all dead
It desires your future destroyed and keeps your enemies fed.
Blinds your vision when you need to see
Heats up your nerves when you can let it be
You cry for freedom from his evil eyes
But all who can hear don’t believe it’s vice.
“Cry ,my dear, cry all your heart’s desire
Because only your timid soul can feel my fire”
“Why me?” you ask, your voice veiled in your tears
“Because you let your body get taken over by your fears!”
Your getting down to your knees and begging will all be vain
Because the demon, my girl, is your own human brain.
