Devil's Heart

I could see the Devil's eye
Hidden under the dark sky
I could feel his tears
Flowing from within

When my eyes locked on his
I could feel the sadness in him
The angel sing a deafening hymn
That pierced through his ears

The face of the Devil
With a heart of an angel
How he longed to be free
Even he knows it could not be

The bitter smile on his lips
How my heart reaps
How I longed to see his smile
Without worriness in his eyes

It hurts to look at him
To even see him
For the devil blest with a heart so pure
Locked in forever's darkness
