A demon?
Hmm, that might be true.
I don't like the place,
And I don't like you.

I was once very kind.
Yes, I was quite a sight!
Back in that time
When all was alright.

But since you've appeared
My ways, they have turned.
Cruelty is better;
That is what I have learned.

A demon?
It is quite possibly true.

I am utterly evil.
I am rich. I am vain.
I will only make contracts
If I stand something to gain.

Unto you I shall place
A malevolent curse
That may be only removed
By something much worse.

My revenge may be lifted
By Death's hand itself,
But beware of his deals;
He cares not about wealth.

A demon?
Yes, that could be true.
But who is the real demon;
Me or you?
