Analysis of The Devil Is A Liar
I almost froze to death,
Jumped over the wall of Jericho,
I couldn't feel the breath taken,
Do you need my hands?
To hold my hands in yours,
Can't that equate to a hell of a ride?
Or it's just a matter of fact?
O, can I hold you in my arms again?
Please, if you mind putting it,
On my bare body, let it be..
But don't allow hatred to penetrate you,
Instead; at least my heart to...
Penetrate your soul and body.
You took me heavenly, as the
Thrills knocked me flat on my,
Feathery bedsheet in my bedroom,
As cold as hot chili, I backed
On your small seemingly giant lips,
I felt loved again, I was small,
But I was giant to it
I thought I was dreaming in colors,
Only to realize, free love besides me,
Whispering the sweetest affliction to me as;
My love, the devil is a liar,
My love, the devil is a liar,
My love, the devil is a liar,
Separate your soul from your spirit,
From body
That will make you a stupid Liar.
