A devil in me?

It's like a heatwave,
Burning in my heart.
I can't keep from crying,
Tearing me apart.

Whenever he,

Sounds soft, sweet and plain.

Right then,
Em
Right then,

I feel this burning pain.

Has this high blood pressure,

Got a hold on me?

Don't under-stand it,
Am
Ain't never felt,
Like this before.

Don't know what to do;

My head's in a haze.
