The undefeatable devil
Did you capture the sound of
the steps of your enemy
the soft scary whisper of the wind
that rings the death bell to you
Can you smell the chlorine gas
like a merciless devil
suffocates and burn down your body
and there’s no way to escape
those contact with Mustard gas
ended up catching fever
some ended up living in darkness
while others waiting for death
have you see the horror on
your brother’s frightening face
The sneaky sly smile your rival shows
that declares their victory
even the masks can’t help much
when the deadly gas invades
it penetrates through your skin like a
undefeatable devil
