3 Nights with the Devil

Mark my words
I will constrain progression
And we have been deceived for far too long

First night, it came like a seraphim in disguise
I could not see truth through the eyes or emotion
Still for the night I was taken

You've been waiting for this all your life
You've been gone for so long
I thought you were dead
It's tracing the room
The devil calls your name

What the fuck is all this?
Where is God?
And did you really think it would come for you
Sun down the next night returned and
Showed me the door to the other side
I confess I'm aware now
Set you to sleep now forever

Enough to face what we ignore
And losing faith in mind
We fell behind
Make your weapons strong
Burn this city to the ground tonight
You've been waiting for this all your life
You've been lost for so long
We're slipping through the ground
And now it's time to sing goodbye
Until the light takes us

Third night and third time I saw its face
My intent was to question
State true and are you the devil
Answer was coded in poison
