SLIP
I lost a part of my soul last night;
Left it lying around
Near a bottle and a pipe
I choked a little
On my words;
Broke my own heart
And got what I deserved
Now I'm shaking a bit
And wanting more
I hear the devil calling;
A voice I can't seem to ignore
I see my reflection in the mirror
I gaze into my eyes
I am a reflection of my own fear
Who have I become?
This simply is not me
Wide-eyed and dead inside
That is what I see
I feel tears now
Filling in my eyes
And I know I've fallen backwards
I've unleashed the demon inside
This is I, the contradiction,
And no longer can I hide…
While the devil walks
By my side
