Devil's Breath Lyrics


This Way To The Egress Devil's Breath

The devil took my baby and then my soul away
Came up on my porch and he took her away
I call to heaven up above “Hey!"
But nothing comes above except the rain
I see it's come to me, I know

The devil took my babe away
She'd never see the light of day, oh
It's not like she was kickin' much
I seen her smile as he rushed, hey!

The fires in the swamp flame away
They took her body out later that day

Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Time to turn your back around so just forget my name

The devil plays his cards
Sticks his fingers inside my head
He'll be so glad when you are rotten dead
The stench is in my bones

Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Time to turn your back around so just forget my name

Well, I am going back in town
Digging up this sacred ground
I find the beast
Get her low upon her knees
Something you can't leave alone
Try crunching down up on this bone
Demon trail beneath the crust
Burn you down ashes to dust

Children stomp and play on your remains
Your head is on a pike within their games

Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Time to turn your back around so just forget my name

The devil plays his cards
Sticks his fingers inside my head
He'll be so glad when you are rotten dead
The stench is in my bones

Yeah, yeah!

Well the fool's got no notion of zero
The chariot's lost his mind
The hermit gone and joined the circus
And left temperance behind

The world has lost it's guidance
On its way to it's decent
The wheel of fortune's gone to hell
So enjoy your day of judgement
Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Time to turn your back around so just forget my name
(Time to turn your back around so just forget my name!)

The devil plays his cards
Sticks his fingers inside my head
He'll be so glad when you are rotten dead
The stench is in my bones

Lookin' at me just the same, you know
Time to turn your back around so just forget my name
