The face of evil came to town
But his face wasn't evil at all
He smiled kindly, kissed both cheeks
And charmed you with his call
They say that the devil is beautiful
He was once an angel too
Now that I've seen the face of evil
I believe this statement is true
He speaks of many tearless nights
Since the day that he was born
I ask how could his parents
Just leave him ripped and torn?
I listened through the wall one eve
And heard him whisper low
*"I'm filled with sorrow and despair
Though not a soul should know"*
I never said a single word
Of what I heard that night
He showed to us his dimpled face
As he left by morning light
To this day I hear his voice
So sad and barely there
He's just a sad and broken creature
And only I seem to care
