The air was cold that night Our breaths thick between us Like the clouds forming above I shivered, letting you draw me in My skin burning hot from your touch Raindrops fell around us Making me **** wincing in pain As the droplets hit my arms Sizzling and turning to steam Discomfort and unease filled my mind As I looked at you for the first time in a different way But that smile that played on your lips just pushed it away I placed my hand within yours And it was as if I was shaking hands with the devil in disguise I let you lead me down your path Only to be left alone in the dark I was not afraid There were no tears pooling in my eyes My pride fought hard to stay afloat And now I'm just making my way down my own path I just wish I knew then, what I know now

Touched by the Devil
The air was cold that night Our breaths thick between us Like the clouds forming above I shivered, letting you draw me in My skin burning hot from your touch Raindrops fell around us Making me **** wincing in pain As the droplets hit my arms Sizzling and turning to steam Discomfort and unease filled my mind As I looked at you for the first time in a different way But that smile that played on your lips just pushed it away I placed my hand within yours And it was as if I was shaking hands with the devil in disguise I let you lead me down your path Only to be left alone in the dark I was not afraid There were no tears pooling in my eyes My pride fought hard to stay afloat And now I'm just making my way down my own path I just wish I knew then, what I know now
