Too Bright To See


The devil is brighter than the love you be.

The darkness is terrified,

(For you), it’s too bright to see.

 

Jezebel is your true mate, may be?

Your heart has bolted from being purified.

The devil is brighter than the love you be.

 

Your ungrateful soul is fogged with concrete

Hope even gives up and is not resupplied,

(For you), it’s too bright to see.

 

Like a case, you can not even plea,

My heart grew legs just to walk outside;

The devil is brighter than the love you be.

 

Death is your key.

The lock within you, you will provide;

(for you), it’s too bright to see.

 

Pure is what you’ll never be,

I am horrified.

Because the devil is brighter than the love you be,

…. but (for you), it’s too bright to see.
