Devils Gate

Behind the devils gate
Captured and alone
Bound by my evil ways
While the outside calls me home

Release me
Where I need to go
Lighten
And brighten
My darkened soul

Left to my own will
Leaves me standing still
On the paths 
Which have taken me
To this place I no longer want to be

I fall to my knees
For it is to late
Always knowing this to be my fate
To be bound
Behind the devils gate….
