"You're so lucky,"
Or so I've been told
Because I haven't seen a ******
Heartless war unfold

But indeed I have
I have seen
The other half
Of the screen

It may not have been hell
Or heaven or both
But I have heard screams of help
As they were the host

A pest has finished
Two before my eyes
They were diminished
By the devil in disguise

Demon, Lucifer,
or even Hate
This thing is sinister
Never underestimate

He chews the lives
Of all the innocent
Puts hands in their knives
Knives like an instrument

This thing is clever
He rushes through veins
Mistaken for pleasure
Drives people insane

All those guilty
Please step forward
Dressed in silk, he
Is cornered

By all the believers
Who hate him so
But they are the receivers
Of his own

They use him against him
The devil in disguise
He is what's within
Although we despise

This thing is deranged
This thing is treason
But this thing arranged
All of the seasons

Day or night,
he will be there.
Just like He might
To make it fair.

If we can't have night
We can't have day
If we don't hear "I might"
We won't hear "Okay"

The devil in disguise
Balances it out
Whether you live with light
Or without

The devil in disguise
Can show you the wrong way
But without him by your side
You wouldn't be here today.
