The Devil lives here
The Devil lives here
The brightest lights and the deepest nights the calm seas and the violent storms in the tears of angels and the laughter of a child the heart of the beast and the call of the wild with every thought born from sinner and saint all driven by the roll of a dice you believed it once, you'll believe it thrice control you have as you flip the coin.
Decisions made looking into the stars making wishes in a hope to meet their points and as you rise and the gap closes at pace you fail to see their fall from grace Your heaven attained right here on earth in the only way that society knows how by tearing those around all the way down to the level a step held far below.
Actions speak but the loudest is silence
The line of time and the time of life
flowing away through the widening void
the hourglass spreads to consume evermore
Praying in the houses of the many gods
Built in the image of the passing tides
looking for ships to set sail to promise
Not knowing this is where the Devil resides.
