A deal with the devil

In twilight's hush, where shadows play A figure emerges, come what may With eyes aglow, like embers bright He offers deals, with a wicked delight His voice is smooth, like silk to touch As he weaves promises, with a wicked clutch He'll grant your dreams, with a twisted grin But at a cost, that's locked within A soul for sale, a heart to bind A deal with the devil, forever entwined In darkness deep, where terrors roam You'll find yourself, in a wicked home With every step, with every fall You'll realize, the deal's not worth it all For in the end, when the darkness fades You'll be left with, a heart that's enslaved Yet still we tempt, the devil's snare Lured by promises, that seem so fair But beware, dear heart, of the deal's dark might For once you sign, there's no turning back the night
