Let The Devil Take You Down

By suicidalsecrecy

Surrender to the mind
Unwind the body it has begun to bind
Search to find
Within yourself are the real answers
Only lies
Let the Devil take you down
Surrender in the war
Put up that little white flag
Show unity with him
Before its finalized
He takes you down, down, down
As his very own prize
Acknowledge the terms of the contract
He has you as his own now
Fire and brimstone are all you have as your own now
Close the door to Hell
For you are his now
You are not going anywhere
For you are his now he owns you
You sold you soul for nothing more than mere existence outside yourself
For you believe that you alone are not good enough
Try to cross that boundary
Neglect to hold that line
And now it is time
Now its time to escape
Hell is too hot for you its too crowded for you
Steal the white flag back
Turn it black
Run away, away, away from there
There is no place you’d rather be
Than home with a life and family
Save yourself and run away
Escape real quick and live another day
Let the Devil fight for you
Let him fight do all he can do
Live real strong die real fast
Go to Hell and Death will last
