Devil in the hallway offers me a price
I think for a moment and then she's grabbing me by the arm
"I miss us"
And for some reason I believe it all
Stumbling backwards into a room
The memories familiar but she tastes new
Realization that nothing can be the same
How can I keep it up with all the questions racing through my head
My fingers burn along her back
But the pain is the familiar and I can't pull away
Thrusting myself further into sinful pleasures
Her face changing, the air changing, becoming thick
A moan? A laugh?
I'm hearing both at the same time
The devil is laughing at me and i'm running, running
Down the never ending hallway
Get me out, out of this deal
Can I escape?
The time I flirted with the past and it accepted.
Only nothing can be the same
No matter how much of your soul you're willing to let go
Let the past burn and let's run
Run away from this place
When they made love she looked into the mirror behind him
And the eyes that looked back were not hers
She had become a stranger to herself
A whisper passed through the winter wind
Liberation
Of the mind and sexuality
Casual sex with a strange reality
Nails dug deep
Make up runs down her face after he leaves
Uncertain foundations
If only she could hold on
To remind him that she meant well
But inside herself, a battle
Two sides of herself, a battle
Between the lust and logic of the mind
Craving less sense and more magic
But how much of the soul will she lose in the process
Down the never ending hallway she runs
Past the flames that seemed to spark in his eyes
Smolder in his touch
Burn it all down, she agrees
"Just take me with you"
