The Devil's dance

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)

You take not giving one thing back
And smile on pain you're causing me
The end is now, you killed the start
You need that devil dance within
And while you take all I have
And leave me empty in the door
I calm my grief, all I have left
While devils dance screams for more
Then when I die you take my soul
I knew that it would end this way
I knew I was destined to fall
That not a part will stay the same
