The Answer in the Devil

The answer was always obvious

Signs, clear from the moment we spoke

I feel and he sees as is

Hope had life here and stars were once bright

Certain of my feelings, so I thought, the devil made sure I fell hard

This game he got me playing

Got me thinking of the possibilities and soon I find myself in this realm of unrealistic goals

Even over the moon, this was never going to come true

My feet would never land

There was no miracle here

And still, I feel

I feel this loss and I feel my heart bury itself in its own grave

A costly loss with reminisce of him still here

The devil dancing in my head

Haunting me continuously
