Bring on the Devil

I want to bite the feathers off your back

Rip away your veins and settle into mourning

Like your blood tasted of pain

I want to tear you, tease you all the day

Pull, punch, rattle, shake and leave you all in bones

And break, brake before the hurricane

I want to teach you how to hear my name

Shudder, tremble in fear and release into hiding

Wait until your ghost appears

I want to freeze your face in that position

Expression twisted out and drop your wings before you

Shout, shout but to no gain
