Chapter 2 - Demon at bay

From a web of lies
I can not die
I made a mask
So I can last
A mask as dark as night
I sit, leaning against a wall
With a candles so bright
My shadow portrays what you can’t see
A Felony with my decree
For you see I am greedy I come to play
An appearance so pleasing by day
For a demon is close at bay
But when I come to play
Your innocence decay
Will you play?
I will take you far away
And when you see the candle
Cast a shadow on the wall
You will stare with fright
For you see
You find no delight
Come play now
Don’t put up a fight
With the candle light
A shadow made to fright
I am a demon and I came to smite
