i am like the devil looking up at you from levels far below was it love that cast me out or was it doubt the kind that springs from fear if i earned a second chance and won a brief forgiving glance from you i d be sure to fail again and so there s no one i can blame but me leave me to my ring of fire as long as i can see you higher safe here in my sad desire i feed off these flames beauty was my master and she led me to disaster and decay and you are a quiver full of arrows that deliver shafts of pain once i was the prince of light and gazed upon eternal night and cried now i am the man you pity roaming out across this city without peace leave me to my ring of fire as long as i can see you higher safe here in my sad desire i feed off these flames
