Will I ever escape him
Will I ever stop looking for him
Can I ever just live my life
When will his shadow disapear
I've served my time in hell
The scars cover my body
The ash covers my soul
And my heart's been burned
My tears have fed the fires
I've seen the devil's face
Saw the fires of anger
Heard the words of pleasure
As he promised to make me pay
Looked into his eyes defiantly
Saw the pure insanity lurking there
The devil is a beautiful creature
But inside there's only insanity
He gets pleasure from others' pain
He got a lot of pleasure from me
One day I will escape him
I will wash the ash from my soul
His shadow will stop covering me
I will step into the sunshine
I'll be me, not part of him
