lyrics

That night I skated helplessly across the dirty snow
Hurtling down the wrong side of the road,I thought about you
And as a demon juggernaut came thundering towards me
With all the angels how I pleaded wordlessly

I crawled like a baby, cursing in the deadly slush
I blushed like a teenager, nursing a schoolboy crush
And as a demon juggernaut came thundering towards me
With all the angels how I pleaded wordlessly

My heart was beating in my chest, heading east but facing west
I wasn’t ready to of worldly apparel myself divest

Satan’s offspring, Sin and Death, were there at the roadside
And Cerberus was barking as the gates swung open wide
I beheld Hell’s occupants, though substance they had none
Chaos was the driver with Darkness riding shotgun

Lucifer leaned over and he opened up the door
Between his world and language, between his world and the law
And in the shadows behind him I swear that I saw Mammon
Updating his Facebook status on his mobile phone

My heart was beating in my chest, heading east but facing west
I wasn’t ready to of worldly apparel myself divest

I got a good look at Death’s face as I sped off towards your place
I know we’ll meet again someday but I’m grateful for the delay

Each line of your story is embroidered on your skin
You’re like a map of all the people and the places you have been
