There's a demon living in me,
It takes none to make it flee.
So all I can do is to be,
The Demon inside me.

My opinions are mine
don't overstep the line
I might be kind
But don't take that to mind

Do you see the smiles,
That my lip styles,
Just because of you, well,
You're worth the while.

When you walk by,
In that suit and tie,
With your brown eyes,
Filled with surprise.

Flirtatious are your words,
I'll say you're a nerd,
Or so I've been heard,
All it takes is three words.

Being in your arms,
Deep in your charms,
Lingering in your smell,
You put me under spell.

But reality pours in,
Intruding our grins,
Our time running thin,
Soon enough a sin.
