Pain and heartache in every pore.
No longer able to see the light.
Your soul cries for an escape, scrambling from the hurt that floods your heart.
The devil calls offering relief.
Your soul, that's his only request.
Give up this grief filled life for a new one.
Broken promises fill from his lips as you are lured slowly in.
Unable to refuse his offer you pass on your pain.
The horrible ache leaves your body and finds a fresh host.
As you sigh your last breath, hope returns for what lies beyond.
Sweet relief floods your senses and its over.
The devil greedily takes your hand and leads you on.
Suffering hangs over your body waiting to fest on new life.
Happy to find a new home when you are discovered.
A darkness falls as the word spreads....
You are dead.
