Dancing With The Devil

Whenever we share a moment

It must come to an end

I can't extend the time we spend

But what makes it so tough

Is knowing this time is not enough

Because when we part ways

Once again your hell will blaze 

I told you not to feel alone when I left

But I'm never lonely you said

Because every time you leave

My demons will come back

And that messes with my head

I would care for you like no one could

Make your heart feel the way it should

I cannot solve all your problems

But I won't let you face them alone

Wishing I knew what I could do

To help find some peace for you

What I can say when I can't stay

To help you get through the day

The only way I know how

Is to write this right now

Something for you to read 

When I close the door behind me

Nobody is perfect, neither am I

Not good with my emotions

Can't describe them so I hide them 

It's a language I find hard to speak

But for you I'd walk along the alphabet

Spend all my time to gather every letter

Find, combine and align them

To create the words you need

In order to make you feel better

I'm not good with cleaning my mess

And I hate living with uncertainty

I don't know how to fix this personally

But for you I'd wash your sins away

Sweep up all of your doubts

Dust off the hidden thoughts

You keep on a mental shelf

So I can help you connect the dots

In order to make you love yourself

This approach however makes it seem

Reaching inner peace is only a dream

But life is not solely a struggle

It's how you juggle the pieces of its puzzle

It's your dark side that should be freed

To achieve the harmony you need

Be open about the pieces that are broken

Just talk and leave nothing unspoken

During bad times I won't disappear

When this happens I'll be right here

Listening to the sound of your darkness

Will be like music to my ears

This melody will mean the world to me

Because finally you won't suffer silently

And not only can our angels be together on cloud nine

But your demons will also be able to dance with mine
