about

This track is really more about taking responsibility than a broken deal made with the devil. The music and the lyrics came to me simultaneously at one of the darkest moments of my life. Sometime there are no easy ways out.

lyrics

I prayed to you sweet Satan
I said to you 'pretty please"
I turned my back on all I loved
I got down on my knees
I offered my essence
I gave you my name
You promised me difference

You let me down
You let me down
You let me down
You let me down
You let me down
