Devil's Pride
By Kainen
Don't look at me that way
All cross-eyed and dumb
Don't start what you want to say
'cause I don't really care
Stand where you are right there and stay
'cause this'll be messy
And you don't want to pay
For what you did
So stop - walk away
*
I come and go as I please
All through the seasons
Like a summer breeze
Walking past the city
It's the sunny day that I seize
*
When finally the sun hides behind the moon
To let the Earthly night take over
I long no more for the glory afternoon
*
Along the alleyways and buildings small
Much like serpents of blackest white
To stars born of sky rise so tall
With every inch that they do appear
I wear more of night as a shawl
Searching through areas of man's last step
I answer solemnly to a the daring call
*
A veil of shadows I see you through
You don't know me
But I know you . . .
