Still very much a work in progress.
Bitter Ruin ; Soldier
I am your soldier, I come to serve you
I've been a good boy, I don't deserve you
Oh I salute you - I’ve faced up to my fate, attempted escape before
Oh I salute you - You don’t need to sound the alarm
I’m not gonna run anymore.
Who serves whom? Just because your fate is decided, does that mean how you live your life is as well?
Vermillion Lies ; Circus Apocalypse
Come down and join the circus, it's the end of the line
You could fall off the highwire, or feed yourself to the lions
There's no audition to get into the show
All that we ask for is your immortal soul.
Many things died as a result of that circus. The ability to pick yourself up and keep going despite the holes in your heart is uniquely human. Of course, that's why humans are interesting.
Voltaire ; When You're Evil
And it's so easy when you're evil
This is the life, you see - the Devil tips his hat to me
I do it all because I'm evil and I do it all for free
Your tears are all the pay I'll ever need.
Let this serve as a reminder: he will never care, nor will he love. You can never trust him; you can only seek to control him. And he won't make it easy.
Jason Webley ; Halloween
Do you feel that glow behind the rotting willow tree?
Something in there knows much more than you can see.
It says there's a task ahead of you,
So don the mask and down the brew,
And peer into the sphere of history.
I suppose you can call his interest "intellectual curiosity." With a healthy dose of wickedness.
The Police ; Wrapped Around Your Finger
Devil and the deep blue sea behind me
Vanish in the air you'll never find me
I will turn your face to alabaster
When you will find your servant is your master.
You may have him on a chain, but you're both shackled to each other. It's a very fine line that separates the master from the slave. Choose wisely.
Florence + the Machine ; Girl With One Eye
I said, hey, girl with one eye
Get your filthy fingers out of my pie
I said, hey, girl with one eye
I'll cut your little heart out cause you made me cry.
There was only one demon there that night, and that demon is yours. But which of us is truly evil, the one who started the flames or the one who ordered them?
Kalafina ; Lacrimosa
No shout of any sort will reach
The merciless gods above the sky
Lacrimosa...
The end will come for you as well. The contract will be complete, and he will take what is rightly his.
Sting ; Lullaby For An Anxious Child
Hush child
I won't leave, I'll stay with you to cross this Bridge of Sighs
Hush child
I can't help the look of accusation in your eyes
In your eyes.
There is nothing scarier than false sincerity when it comes to your sworn protector.
