The velvet tongue of hell

Lyrics

He speaks in velvet, honey drips from his tongue, A symphony of shadows where the fallen ones sway. "Darling, let me rewrite the world you’ve begun," But the devil’s got a price wrapped in a saint’s disarray. **Pre-Chorus** Oh, but every promise cuts like a knife, A rose in bloom with a core of blight. He’ll charm the moon, then swallow the light— Hell’s sweetest sin wears heaven’s disguise. **Chorus** *Lucifer’s lips, they taste like sin,* *A lullaby that pulls you in.* *But the melody’s poison, the crescendo—despair,* *You’ll trade your soul for a breath of his air.* *Oh, his words are gilt, but the edges they tear,* *Leaving you choking on heavenless prayer.* **Verse 2** He paints the stars with a silver lie, “Follow me, darling, we’ll storm the sky.” But the gates burn cold when his flames rise high, And Eden’s ghost is the last thing you’ll cry. **Pre-Chorus** Oh, but every step feels like flying at first, ‘Till the ground gives way and the void does burst. He’ll crown you queen of a kingdom cursed— A gilded cage where the damned are nursed. **Chorus** *Lucifer’s lips, they taste like sin,* *A lullaby that pulls you in.* *But the melody’s poison, the crescendo—despair,* *You’ll trade your soul for a breath of his air.* *Oh, his words are gilt, but the edges they tear,* *Leaving you choking on heavenless prayer.* **Bridge** The crown of ashes, the hollow throne, A million hearts he’s turned to stone. “Bow to me, love, we’ll rule alone—” But the inferno’s kiss is a debt you’ll own. (Don’t drink the nectar from his rusted cup— The first sip’s freedom, the last one’s a noose.) **Outro** Beware the angel with the broken wings, His aria of ruin on the wind still sings. For the road to ruin is paved with sugar and sting— And Lucifer’s ballad… *is the end of everything
