A Devils' Deed

Run away into the darkness,
the shadow that I seek. 
Hide the fear you hold,
Your secret I keep.

The night takes over, the hunger to. 
The feeling held within, the pain.
Something screaming in your ears,
take the blood, let it flow through your
veins.

You hear them scream with fright.
They look you sratight in the eye,
you stop them dead within sight.

You whisper your lies,
telling them not to be afraind.
Its just a dream, soon
you will wake.

Yes you will wake, but not as the child
anymore, not so innocent. 
Oh, you can be sure.

You will be something lesser
than the filfth of the earth.
Only doing the devils work.

Maddened by this evil deed you shall,
Driven beyond insanity.
