In the moon’s shadow I dine with the devil His eyes a burning glow And mine dark evil. Everything he can find What goes on in my mind, Shown, acted, faked, The devil bares me naked. He says ‘what good will come Of the world’s all goodness When I can make reign The ugliness beneath all face’! The devil knows the world is his And he has me in his leash While I speak and feign wise I sin for the smallest compromise. As the devil pours me wine He taunts ‘it can’t be divine, Your world, that I rule supreme, And your God, a wishful dream!’ It gets darker as the moon sinks low Winds rising from hell fiercely blow Inebriated to its utmost measure I’m ready to burn for a moment’s pleasure!
