Hand in Hand

I dunno how it happened, you couldn't tell me why if you wanted to. I know at night he comes for you, smile on his face. Whispering promises of release and a gentle euphoria. But somehow you gotta see it by now. Surely you've noticed the shame in my eyes when I look at you if not in the mirror looking back at yourself? tell me, what is the going rate for a soul? is it worth the pitch black void left behind from what used to be pride? what is he like? is he crimson and menacing? no no. Surely he must be handsome charismatic. at least at first. your rise and fall destroyed lives, including yours. u lied, cheated, hustled, and hooked. was it worth it? as you press your lips to that pipe tonight consider this, you had everything once, but unless you fight back, ure soul is gone.
