Eyes of a Devil

Written for FAWM ’24

[VERSE]
I think I may have sinned
I’ve welcomed thoughts, that stray me from my path
Now I don’t know how I begin
When there’s no light to guide me back

[PRE]
I’m devoid the moral guidance
To know right from wrong in matter such as these
Can you lend a hand, to help me understand
The nature of this brush with divinity

[CHORUS]
Ooh
Is what I’m looking for salvation,
After staring in the eyes of a devil?
Is my soul too lost to save,
From permanent damnation?
If all I ever knew of love was in the eyes of a devil.

[VERSE]
I’m not looking to be martyred
I’m free to turn away from my suffering
But my path feels unchartered
and atonements not a destination that I think I’ll reach

[PRE]
Maybe i need some spiritual guidance
But won’t indulge there’s religion that can show the way
If this was felt before, the shame of wanting even more
Would have kept the history off the page

[CHORUS]
Ooh
Is what I need a salvation,
After staring in the eyes of a devil?
Is my soul too lost to save,
From permanent damnation?
’Cause all I ever knew of love was in the eyes of a devil.

[BRIDGE]
Is this a form of grace or compulsion in disguise
A mask to hide intent from my innocence
Am i too naïve to comprehend or realize
The art that’s intertwined with the devils wickedness

[OUTRO]
Ooh
Can I find my redemption
After looking in the eyes of a devil
I thought I found my way,
but was led into temptation
And all I ever knew of love was in the eyes of a devil
