Today I locked eyes with the devil and hearts with a fiend
My two dearest of friends who I once met in my dreams
They keep a close watch on those who want to hurt me
They show me the truths of whos truly my enemy
I see what they show me and now I do agree
That I will never suffer or fall by the hands of anybody
To refuse the words of them all and never to feel sorry
That every time they were a lie fake words for a fake apology
I embrace the darkness and the place that makes me not care
A cold dead nothingness that leaves me with no hopes to spare
An empty place with no feelings no emotions nothing that I'm aware
No joy nor agony can reach the depths of this place of despair
No life behind my eyes that gleam with a cold dead stare
If I ever cared before well I can't recall when or where
If pain is what's offered then I'll give or take all of my share
It won't matter to me who it breaks or if things are even fair
In that place they gave to me where I no longer have to feel
A godsend from hell a blessing that all emotions kill
A darkness so deep and so old it drains away all of your will
And leaves you cold and careless but its no big deal
When the wicked take away what once you thought was real
Youll offer it up even more and hope they'll come to steal
The demons devour you up like you were there last meal
And you sign yourself away an oath an unbreakable seal
What does it matter anyways when what matters always hurt
Always come last in line when your fighting for the first
But get thrown aside like the trash treated as if you're dirt
Hated upon by the ones you loved like you were the worst
Yet you crave their approval like trying to quench a thirst
But you're left high and dry seems a blessing from a curse
Then the devil sends a promise heavy with allure
And all of a sudden you've found peace of this you're sure
So you go to that one place that they could never know
When the world around you begins to move at a pace so slow
And all his words and hatred no longer matter no hurt in-tow
Then it can't keep you down And out cant make you feel low
If you were incomplete before then this place will leave you whole
When there's nowhere left to run to hide there's only one place to go
So close your eyes open your mind and get ready for the show
The only price small and slight is that of your tortured soul
