The Devil's Dance

I dance with the devil
Even though I know my own brain
And that if I dare continue
It will only cause more pain
But he's so beautiful
And he presents things at their finest
That I fall for the trap every time
He's got me by chains
And quite frankly,
How do I let go?
When an angel trapped in darkness
Is being forced to do the tango
A dance I don't know
So he lashes me
And I fall down again
But his dance seems so inviting
Even though I don't stand a chance
He makes it look so easy
And I fall for it again
Why do I play this game
Why do I dance this dance
I don't even know what I'm doing
It's an endless story
And one where it's sucked of romance
The devil doesn't just beat his wife
He beats every living thing
With temptaions,
Depression,
Addiction,
Suicide,
Anger,
Fighting,
And he reels them in
With his tongue of silver
Making them believe they stand a chance
But knowing
That there is nothing left
He leaves you with nothing
Making you believe
It's something
So unchain my wings
And help let me go
There seems to be no way out of this hole
And as I sleep tonight please pray
That someone with thoughts of resuce
Will be able to save
