My Darling Devil
Falling into place the moment you caressed my face
Bathing in the waters of woe...wishing to find your ship of grace
Spinning around all over the place,
Trying to find my place, but you invade my space
Tracing my steps towards the path of His wrath
Streetlights flicker on and off as I tread the road
There are problems to solve...they're complicated like solving equations in math
When my head was in the clouds, you carried my heavy load
I'd like to thank you for your service
You got to put your head up above the surface
I let you inside my mind and you gained access to my whole body
You are the key to the gate of glory...you make me feel like somebody...
Somebody special for once in my life
I'm not a nobody who deals with strife
Feeling like I'm losing control, dear friend
Oh sugar, don't look back, for it's not the end
Hold me tight
Be my light of delight
In the dark of night
Seriously, going through dangerous hardships
Can't mend the heartache from past relationships
But I gotta get a grip,
So give me your words of wisdom...as bittersweet as a glass of rum
Let me take a little sip
Of your blessed, breathtaking brilliance that will numb...
This pain I have in this heart of stone
The voices in my head won't leave me alone
I thought I was on my own, but I was wrong
I was wrong...I belong all along...all along
Beautiful moments spent with you are stuck in my head
Holding back tears that allow me to wander off in dread
Your good soul brought me higher off the ground
My darling devil was my angel during dark times...making me ecstasy-bound
Your shadows, your reflections
Your blessed breeze blows, rejections sugarcoated with your affections
Turn the wheel towards vibrant freeways
Freedom is for real when I graze in the maze of our tranquil days
I don't believe I'll find that special someone...all my battles aren't won
Because I've been heartbroken way too many times
Sick of being neglected and rejected...all I can do is find the adored one
Addicted to the pain in my heart...it's hard to pay the price of committing crimes
I take back the words I said to you yesterday...
I'm a liar by your side and not at all loyal
I'm capable of making someone's day horrible in any way,
But I choose to be a healer of wrecked hearts, Not a stealer of young hearts...
My smile will glimmer like ruby diamonds, so precious and royal
I've fallen so low on my feet...I've lost your heartbeat
Who will raise up and make me feel complete?
The sunlight is blocked by the moonlight tonight
I'm young and free and no one can stop me from being me
I feel like everything is going right tonight when you and I hold each other tight
I'm waiting for our future to take flight while our hearts seek paradise to the highest degree
I was in the depths of my despair when our friendship broke apart
Oh my darling devil, I'm willing to abide by your side
I fight the urge to depart from the truth that sets us free from the start
Oh my darling devil, swallow me up like a dark tide and take me on a raging ride
