Megadeth - Devils Island lyrics

[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
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 Devil's Island
The final stop for me

Devil's Island devil's Island

Oh, there is no escape
The sea is full of sharks
Tide takes you away and smash you on the rock
The sun is shining, but feel not today
Its warmth, it's dying and fading away

Devil's Island here I stay
Devil's 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
But, so it did, the heavens opened
Rain began to fall
The final judgment came and was
Spread before you all!

Final judgment

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 Devil's Island
I'll always have to stay

Devil's Island devil's Island
Devil's Island devil's Island
Here I am

Devil's Island devil's Island
Devil's Island devil's Island
Devil's Island devil's Island
Devil's Island devil's Island
