Bad Deal

I gave my soul to the devil, way back when,

Signed the deal with a trembling pen,

Thought I’d found the key to everything,

But I didn’t know the cost it would bring.

He promised me the world, and I took the bait,

Now I’m living with a curse I can’t shake,

I got everything I thought I’d need,

But every victory planted a darker seed.

It was a good deal if you like to suffer,

A twisted path where the shadows hover,

Got what I wanted, but at what cost?

Every gain felt like a loss.

I’m haunted by dreams that turn to dust,

In a world where nothing’s left to trust,

Gave my soul to the devil, thought I’d won,

But all I gained was the burning sun.

I climbed so high, touched the sky,

But with every step, I knew it was a lie,

Watched it all slip through my hands,

Like grains of sand, slipping from the land.

Every time I reached the top,

Something inside would make it stop,

I lost sight of why I was here,

Now I’m left with nothing but fear.

It was a good deal if you like to suffer,

A twisted path where the shadows hover,

Got what I wanted, but at what cost?

Every gain felt like a loss.

I’m haunted by dreams that turn to dust,

In a world where nothing’s left to trust,

Gave my soul to the devil, thought I’d won,

But all I gained was the burning sun.

Now I’m walking through these flames,

A life of regret, a game with no names,

I see the ashes of what I once had,

A hollow victory, making me mad.

The devil laughs as I crumble down,

The king of a throne that wears no crown,

Every joy, every win, turned to pain,

In this endless, eternal rain.

It was a good deal if you like to suffer,

A twisted path where the shadows hover,

Got what I wanted, but at what cost?

Every gain felt like a loss.

I’m haunted by dreams that turn to dust,

In a world where nothing’s left to trust,

Gave my soul to the devil, thought I’d won,

But all I gained was the burning sun.

So here I am, with nothing to show,

For all the things I thought I’d know,

The devil took more than I could see,

Left me with nothing, just the ghost of me.

I gave my soul to the devil, many years ago,

Now I’m lost in the fire, with nowhere to go.
