{Mistress of Darkness, Demon of Hell}

I reside in the deepest hell
Where no man dares to tread
Take my hand, I’ll show you true fear
Follow me down, as darkness swells
Watch your step, mind the dead
Keep your wits about you and stay near

This is the birthplace of nightmares
Where the dead conjure the shadows
And haunt you from the darkness
And what is the burden that I bear?
The reason these things I know?
To you this secret I’ll confess

I am the mistress of darkened dreams
The regulator who lets horrors fly
And casts spells to keep your thoughts in my grasp
Leaving you in waking fear, my scheme
Trap the world in everlasting fright
While you wonder if every breath may be your last

I reside in the deepest hell
A mistress of darkness, a creature of fear
And you're the mortal I wish to keep
All my secrets I will tell
Anything to keep you near
To hold me when I start to weep

Even a demon of hell needs love...

I absolutely loved it. it's very inspiring to know that there are still people out there who understand that everyone has a desire to be loved eventhough they may not appear so.
