Devil's Heart

by PS   Jul 4, 2006


I stand alone fearfully awaiting
the cold loss of my burning soul
I made a pact with the darkest prince
for the life of my purest love

My small pink baby will grow ever large
just as a child of any other
she will have a long full life,
just without her cursed mother

to save my baby from certain death
ive given my soul to the devil
and now i await the coming of him
with the sharp horns and tail

Seeing a dark man shrouded in shadows
i know he has come to snatch me from me
his black nails, attched to red fingers
curl and run through my hair as i shiver

he pulls me away from the earth so green
into the shadows of his brimstone world
laying me down on his fiery bed, i see
the golden gleam of his intense eyes

tonight i have learned which i could never
the devil's heart, his soul is mine to own
my baby is safe, and i love for all eternity
in the fiery depth of hell, heaven
