Devotion
♡ Hurts Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Inside the heart of every man
There is so much to understand
And I'm just the same

When all the love has gone away
And passion stares me in the face
Could I walk away
Ears open
You'll help me to be brave

Devotion save me now
I don't wanna stray from the hallow ground
I'll turn temptation down
I'm asking you to take me to safety this time

Forgive my thoughts when I'm asleep
Forgive these words I'm yet to speak
I feel so ashamed

Right now you seem so far away
So much confusion clouds my mind
And i don't know which path to take

Ears open
You'll help me to resist

Devotion save me now
I don't wanna stray from the hallow ground
I'll turn temptation down
I'm asking you to take me to safety this time

Devotion, devotion
I'm a slave onto the mercy of your love
For so long I've been so wrong
I could never live without you





Devotion, devotion
Take me to safety

You managed to perfectly capture both the terrifying and sympathetic aspects of a yandere, hats off to you, this was incredible, been years since I got so immersed in one of this.

And now that I'm done praising you, I'm gonna get weird, ehem...

"I'm giving her the keys. I want to trust her. I want to hold her. I want to heal her...

My penance for my part in all this mess will be to give her my life to do with as she pleases. I have nothing left, no one left, and she needs help. So I will give what is left of me to her, to help her, to rescue any semblance of sanity buried beneath the pain.

And if I can find a single scrap of happyness in such existance, that will be enough. So please, stop crying. I love you. (Kiss)"

I love yandere stuff — IN FANTASY — and this asmr is so good
So detailed, well done, and just good all-around 🛐







Again, IN FANTASY — yandere's have my heart and soul when it's not real 😭

The level of attention to detail in this asmr is very good, I have heard a lot of yandere asmr but this asmr is very special because the "yandere girl" acts like a real person and that makes it perfect
