(hummmmm) The dust is cold beneath his boots
Met a traveler on the borderline
His shadow stretched a mile long
Smelled of sulphur and old cheap wine
Singing a dark and heavy song Said I can grant your wildest
dreams For just a signature on the line I
looked him straight right in the eyes
And let a slow grin part my teeth
He didn't see the dark disguise
Of what was festering underneath I pulled the ledger from his claw
And showed him what I'd done before
Oh the devil took a step back on the road
Realized he met a heavier load
He came to steal a mortal's pride But found a monster deep
inside The fire in his eyes began to fade
Terrified of the bargain he made
He saw the names of those I'd broken
The wicked deeds that I had crowned
Not a single word was spoken As he dropped his ledger to
the ground The prince of darkness shook with fear At the real
evil standing here
Oh the devil took a step back on the road
Realized he met a heavier load
He came to steal a mortal's pride But found a monster deep
inside The fire in his eyes began to fade
Terrified of the bargain he made
Now I walk this path alone
With a colder crown upon my throne (hummmm)
