Men in the Masks

His silky deception
pulls seductively
words of truest devotion
words i yearn to hear

As I step through
black ink swallows me
grotesque trap he has laid
soul drains, turning hollow

Haunting melody plays through my soul
"You there, lost one, show me the way"
how can i show you out
when i am his prey

To the men in the masks
who pretend they are nice
behind slammed doors
facade falls, heart of ice

Woe me at first
you do it so well
loosen reins of control
welcome to my hell

Dejavu slams my chest
dance of ancient times
when they pull off the mask
demon whispers you are mine
