Under the Devil's Eye
(A haunting ballad about being constantly watched by a dark force)
[Intro]
A chill in the air, a shadow near,
A silent watcher, a creeping fear.
No place to run, no place to hide,
You're living life under the devil's eye.
[Verse 1]
The mirror cracks, it shows my face,
But there's another I can't erase.
In every corner, in every shade,
A presence lingers, a pact I made.
A whisper calls, it knows my name,
It feeds on guilt, it thrives on shame.
I feel the weight, I sense the stare,
A cursed soul in a devil's snare.
[Chorus]
Under the devil's eye, I tread,
Every step watched, every word said.
A shadow looms, a gaze so cold,
My every secret, my heart it holds.
Under the devil's eye, I fall,
Bound by chains, I hear the call.
No escape, no alibi,
Forever caught under the devil's eye.
[Verse 2]
The wind it howls, the candles fade,
A spectral hand pulls back the shade.
I see it now, its piercing glare,
A burning gaze beyond compare.
It knows my dreams, it knows my fears,
It drinks my laughter, twists my tears.
Each choice I make, each path I try,
Leads me back under the devil's eye.
[Chorus]
Under the devil's eye, I tread,
Every step watched, every word said.
A shadow looms, a gaze so cold,
My every secret, my heart it holds.
Under the devil's eye, I fall,
Bound by chains, I hear the call.
No escape, no alibi,
Forever caught under the devil's eye.
[Bridge]
The ticking clock, it mocks my fate,
A life confined to a cursed state.
Its laughter echoes through my head,
A haunting hymn for the living dead.
The devil waits, it never sleeps,
It watches high while darkness creeps.
Its patience endless, its will unshaken,
My soul its prize, my hope forsaken.
[Chorus]
Under the devil's eye, I tread,
Every step watched, every word said.
A shadow looms, a gaze so cold,
My every secret, my heart it holds.
Under the devil's eye, I fall,
Bound by chains, I hear the call.
No escape, no alibi,
Forever caught under the devil's eye.
[Outro]
The stars have faded, the night grows long,
My whispers fail, my prayers are wrong.
No heaven hears, no angel flies,
Just endless nights under the devil's eye.
