The Haunting Presence Lyrics

Giles Corey The Haunting Presence

[Verse 1]
Giles Corey, bloody and gory
We will redress your wrongs
Bloody and battered, nothing matters
Somehow, just makes it worse

And I don't care if I live or die
Because I ain't ever going to no other side
There ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell
But I am a sinner so it's all just as well

There's a devil on my back
There's a devil on my legs
There's a devil on my chest
There's a devil on my neck

[Bridge] (x2)
And of a wicked physick came
All the heavy stones
To fall with crushing weight upon
All of those who can't become a ghost

[Verse 2]
I've been wailing like a child at the bottom of a well
I've been pacing like a man in a prison cell
I am buried above the ground
And no-one knows anything
(there's a devil on my chest)

[Incomprehensible yelling]
