The Devil takes it all
No second place in this race
Keep your soul in fifth gear and
keep your foot to the floor
Don't hit the brakes til you smell the sulfur
Don't close your eyes or blink
Pour yourself a stiff one
Take a deep breath and drink
Wrap that car around the Tree of Life
Make the fates turn away and scream
A knifes edge is the life's edge
Cut deep and feel the pain
Tires bleed the asphalt
Life's engine squeals in a desperate attempt to keep control
You've got your past in the trunk
it's weighing you down but it's driving you forward
Forward to the scene of the crash
Oh Mephisto, Lord Temptation
Your dancing is divine
Across thin ice we float like angels
Drunk on Heaven's wine
No worries in the here and now
Timeless so you say
So come Mephisto Waltz with me
Let's make the world pay
A drop of blood for every hour
Of responsibility
That mankind's so called wisdom
Didst try to bleed from me
We'll dance across the Lake of Fire
And freeze time's weary stitch
For as they say in the underworld
Mortality's a bitch
