ERIK

Haunted man, haunted face
Genius in the dark
Angel or demon, friend or fiend
A life of horrors, vast and stark
Reach out through your music
Just one chance for her love
To your world of darkness
Far from the light above
Abandoned and betrayed
Rejected and denied
She offered her love
But the truth is she lied
Flee from the memories
Forget her face and name
She was not worthy of your music
To her it was only a game
Another hears your voice
She sees beyond the mask
Beauty is in the soul
She is worthy of the task
