Evil Lover, Evil Heart.....

Love hates me for I am brash, and proud, alas
The formulated lemmings, jumping from the cliffs
Try to make me run that way, you can kiss my ass
For I was born an evil lover, I do not know of pain
For all I really care about, is me and, oh yeah, ME.......

I was never trained like you, I made "my bones" at age thirteen
Yes, I really killed a man, and in turn, he killed my heart
So yes, I am an evil lover, and proudly where the mark
You cannot find me, come the light,or in break of day
For I hunt in solitude, adorned in cover of the dark and gray......

Remember, when I stand above you, staring into your horror
That I am enjoying the play, an actor with evil to convey
My pulse does not elevate, even as your face is torn asunder
And I leave you cloven into a heap, then sit down to eat my dinner
I'm simply being the man, your dreams have made of me.......

A haunted man, haunting virginal eyes and ghostly lovers
I am the evil heart of man, I am your evil lover
You've prayed for me to come, and indeed I do
As I wait for you in shadows, I look forward to emptying your soul
So I may feed on it, on you, and everything you control
It feels so good to hate..........
