touched by the devil

Your poisonous words, they've cut me deep
with your lashing tongue, the venom seeps
deeper and deeper into the skin,
your beatings are the reason I'm dying from within
using my love like a weapon, you kill me each and every time
saying "I love you", like that's your reason why

I ask god what did I do
to deserve a man like you
but he won't answer me, yet I'm still waiting, patiently
I try to leave or hide but you demand me back to your side
I want to run, scream and cry...
you say we belong, though I know that's lie!

you say you'll never let me go
and so one reaps what he sows
my love for you is a prison, our house is the cage you've built me...

and you baby are my warden, master, and guard
there's no more love, hope, laughter, fun or joy
there's only pain, misery, and suffering!
this what it means to love a monster

This is what it means to be touched by the devil!
