Graveblankets - Gods And Monsters lyrics

rate me

The devil was on stilts this morning

He walked out back to see

The ten foot wine glass he used to ensnare me

Well I wanted to burn down the barn

Where he spent most his summer days

Well I lit a match and watched the haystacks burn

But the devil walked into the blaze

GODS AND MONSTERS

Well I lived in a small northern town

Where scratch had always had a foothold

But I always felt certain

I could stop the infernal cold

GODS AND MONSTERS

He'd taken control of a woman

That we all knew and loved

But she didn't recognize

The devil's hand inside her glove

She had power and influence

That she'd always used with care

But slowly and surely

Our lives became a nightmare

GODS AND MONSTERS
