|
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
|
And, 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, and
|
Smashes you on the rocks.
|
The sun is shining,
|
But feel not today,
|
It's warmth, it's dying,
|
And fading away.
|
|
Chorus
|
Devils Island, Devils 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 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, and
|
Was spread before you all.
|
Final judgement.
|
|
Old, weak, and feeble,
|
But the lesson taught to me,
|
To stay away from evil,
|
She doesn't care for me.
|
She haunts me in my sleep,
|
Though I tore that page away.
|
And, here on Devils Island,
|
I'll always have to stay.
|
|
Chorus
|
Devils Island, Devils Island
|
Here I am.
