Tears of the Devil

Sometimes we are sad.

Sometimes it is so bad.

We feel we cannot bear the burden.

Tears help us wash away the pain.

But the world is full of hate, and the pain is great.

For some, the tears will not come.

Happy faces come with the Tears of the Devil to peddle

Tearless faces come with the Tears of the Devil to peddle

Tears we must cry or life is a lie

We beat the devil with the tears we cry

They try in vain those burdened with extraordinary pain

They try to cry but their eyes remain dry.

They see all the happy faces collecting in the party spaces.

People without fears. They seem so happy these faces without tears.

Happy faces, come with the Tears of the Devil to peddle

Tearless faces come with the Tears of the Devil to peddle

Really they’re not crying, because they’re no longer trying.

They try to ignore, but pain grows in their core.

They are stuck on the train, only increasing the pain.
