MASTER RECORDING LYRICS

FONT:
The light that fills my lonely cell Is blocked out by the key That locks the door to this hell The place they wanted me Time's racing like the wind Execution's near Oh lord, I wait for death And, yes, I have no fear I recall that night, my every breath And step along the way Closed my eyes, walking As danger paved the way The devil, and the darkness Let her evil wander free Here on Devils Island The final stop for me Devils Island, Devils Island Oh, there's no escape The sea is full of sharks Tide takes you away, and Smash you on the rocks The sun is shining But feel not today It's warmth, it's dying And fading away Devils Island, here I stay, Devils Island Oh, hear the call From the grave beyond Oh, so pernicious Her soul it creates song As there is no man That is here upon the earth Able to terminate our Noisome will since birth The priest that reads the sermon Is walking next to me To the stake my last request To have her burn with me And so it did, the heavens opened Rain began to fall Final judgement came and Was spread before you all Final judgement Old, weak, and feeble, And the lesson taught to me Stay away from evil, She doesn't care for me She haunts me in my sleep Though I tore that page away Here on Devils Island I'll always have to stay Devils Island, Devils Island Here I am Devils Island, Devils Island
