I can see it but you won¡¯t
|
I look around you are alone
|
Memories they seem to fade
|
And I said I would stand by your side
|
But his side seems to be your side
|
Don¡¯t let me get in the way
|
|
So you can do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
And around and around you go, no
|
Do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
|
And desperate for a sense of self
|
But you only look to someone else
|
When the answer¡¯s buried in your head
|
Grow farther from the life you crave
|
Grow empty with each passing day
|
Oblivious to every thing
|
|
But you still do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
And around and around you go, no
|
Do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
Around and around you go you go
|
|
With no way out
|
No screams allowed
|
So be still you feel fine
|
Don¡¯t escape you are mine
|
Illusions following you fast
|
Reality left in the past
|
The floor has fallen from your feet
|
|
But you still do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
And around and around you go, no
|
Do-si-do with the devil in the dark
|
|
It¡¯s been upon his finger all the time
|
All the time
|
You feel fine.
