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
