I see  You
I see you

Please don't stand too close
The devil has broken free from the shackles of his cage and is threatening
To take from me anyone that comes near


Stepping back quietly with grace would be your best option
But even then I can't promise your get out of this in one whole piece


Fragmented pieces falling
You crumble at my feet

If only you'd listened

The devil within
The Angel within
He fell
In darkness as in the light
As in day
As in night


Shh place your finger to your lips
Silence breeds contempt you say
But I say it just serves to keep you safe


In shadows we find ourselves
As sunrise appears
We thank god we have survived
