My Soul to Take

Heartbeat that stops beating

Beating my head against this wall

Forgetting how to get back up

So I lay right where I fall

If I see you smile again

Again, I’ll have false hope

Stay with me and remain still

An end to this tight rope

Hang man is not a game

Game in season, so you hunt

You dangle me here or there

Object dodged, weapons blunt

I would sell my soul to the devil

Devil said that talk is cheap

Loyal only to yourself

Just take my soul for free

Dance once more, I may depart

Depart from my heart, I fear

Leave me where, should I die

Too dry to shed one tear
