Satan's Lullaby

I fumble away from the pain, clutching through the dark,

I hurry through the sadness to meet your eyes.

Yet I cannot find you when I need you most,

All I see is a strangers steel disguise.

I run from the nightmare, the monsters in my head,

Desperate to find you, for the love you bring,

Yet the shadows reach out to grab me still yet,

They lure me into temptation with the words they sing.

I wanted you to guard my soul, in your castle tight,

When I needed you most, only whispers could be found.

Alone but still with you, promises quickly broken

As you watched them drag me to the ground.

Stumbling fearfully through this life, you are always just out of reach

You beckon me closer, safety in your gaze,

I follow the temptation every time, believe you,

Until you let your demons out to play.

When I finally find you through the dark,

My skin becomes marred with the night sky.

I wanted your love so much,

I was willing to fall for Satan's lullaby.
