it s a promise that he made to himself but the thrill puts his pact on the shelf locked in a prison he built over time made of bitterness hate and his lies a life on trial a sad refrain a mans denial of pain sustained he can t control the deepening hole he feels true peace with rage unleashed the devil feeds on my thoughts even when i pray a broken promise that i ll never lose it again the darkness sucks on my soul and keeps the sun away i can t stop it so now let the madness begin so many voices bounce around in his head some tell him that he d be better off dead can t shake the urge when the madness calls so set the world ablaze and watch the kingdom fall a marriage failed a time in jail a future bright turned black as night he grins with hate all hope is erased he can t resist the demons kiss the devil feeds on my thoughts even when i pray a broken promise that i ll never lose it again the darkness sucks on my soul and keeps the sun away i can t stop it so now let the madness begin the devil feeds on my thoughts even when i pray a broken promise that i ll never lose it again the darkness sucks on my soul and keeps the sun away i can t stop it so now let the madness begin the devil feeds on my thoughts even when i pray a broken promise that i ll never lose it again the darkness sucks on my soul and keeps the sun away i can t stop it so now let the madness begin now let the madness begin
