Devil In Disguise
"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.
