ANGEL  AND  DEMON

ANGEL  AND  DEMON

I  sin,  but  I’m  not  the  devil
I’m  pure,  but  my  mind  is  twisted
I’m  good,  but  I’m  not  an  angel
I  soar,  but  my  wings  were  made  in  flames

In  the  stygian  depth  of  my  soul
In  the  deepest,  darkest  recesses
Lurks  two  opposing  forces
A  little  angel  and  a  little  demon

I’ve  walked  through  the  fires  of  hades
Sauntered  through  the  gardens  of  heaven
I’m  afflicted  with  grave  torments
And  adorned  with  a  magical  peace

My  angel  counsels  me  to  be  sincere
My  devil  seals  my  lips  with  blood
Pleasure  and  pain  aye  abide  my  bosom
Both  emotions;  my  dark,  crude  inventions

I’d  choose  a  side,  but  I’m  mortally  terrified
If  I  banish  my  demon,  I  might  lose  my  angel
