lyrics

CANTO DIABLO 4 - BALLAD FOR SATAN

I see it on their faces how they feigned indifference
How it shows through those yellow slit eyes
Of burgeoning sufferance yet still they repeat
All those thing they're taught to do since birth!

They came via a nexus of any two points
A sordid sport begetting but the void
A sorrowful fate but still they kept trying
A sorry existence bereft of good ending

They conspire on things beyond human eyes
How every precious seconds they're wont to
Detouring, leading mankind further astray
By whatever means--leaving none untried

Perpetually redefining diligence and hard work
Bordering on maddened despair! Though hope and
Blessings were never there but that didn't stop them
Of dichotomy and opposites found in grief

Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will sigh
Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will cry
Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will fry
Keep on trying my friends, for soon you will die
