Symphony of the Devil
Symphony of the Devil
(and yes I do play with fire
on a number of levels... hehehe)
Drums of despair
Beating my will...
My Surrendered soul
Bleeding unrepaired
Horns of dissention
Devouring their fill…
My Surrendered soul
Painful comprehension
Strings of consternation
Branding their way
My Surrendered soul
Eroded determination
Cymbals of disgrace
Drowning my day
My Surrendered soul
Gone without a trace
Percussions of regret
Following the trail
My Surrendered soul
Tangled in a net
Bands of madness
Describing my tale
My Surrendered soul
Entangling distress
Segues of entreat
Swallowing my pain
Surrendered my soul
Painless retreat.
