Megadeth - Devils Island Lyrics
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.Times racing like the wind,Executions 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 darknessLet her evil wander freeAnd, here on devils island,The final stop for me.Chorus:Devils island, devils island.Oh, there is no escape,The sea is full of sharks.The tide takes you away, andSmashes you on the rocks.The sun is shining,But feel not today,Its warmth, its dying,And fading away.Chorus (repeat):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 isHere upon the earth,Able to terminate ourNoisome will since birth.The priest that reads the sermons,Is walking next to me,To the stake, my last request,To have her burn with me.But, so it did, the heavens opened,Rain began to fall.The final judgement came, andWas spread before you all.Final judgement.Old, weak, and feeble,But the lesson taught to me,To stay away from evil,She doesnt care for me.She haunts me in my sleep,Though I tore that page away.And, here on devils island,Ill always have to stay.Chorus (repeat):Devils island, devils island.[devils island, devils island.]Here I am.Chorus (repeat [4 times]):Devils island, devils island.
