[ti: Devil’s Island (live at Wembley, 1990)]
[length: 04:45]
[00:48.97]The light that fills my lonely cell,
[00:50.67]Is blocked out by the key,
[00:51.45]That locks the door to this hell,
[00:52.76]The place they wanted me.
[00:53.56]Time’s racing like the wind,
[00:54.85]Execution’s near,
[00:56.06]Oh lord, I wait for death,
[00:57.52]And, yes, I have no fear.
[00:58.59]I recall that night, my every breath,
[01:00.23]And, step along the way.
[01:02.95]Closed my eyes, walking,
[01:06.35]As danger paved the way.
[01:07.38]The devil, and the darkness
[01:07.54]Let her evil wander free
[01:08.22]And, here on Devils island,
[01:10.75]The final stop for me
[01:11.91]Devils island, devils island.
[01:20.39]Oh, there is no escape,
[01:21.37]The sea is full of sharks.
[01:22.62]The tide takes you away, and
[01:23.83]Smashes you on the rocks.
[01:25.32]The sun is shining,
[01:26.81]But feel not today,
[01:27.89]It’s warmth, it’s dying,
[01:29.31]And fading away.
[01:30.93]Devils island, devils island.
[01:41.67]Oh, hear the call,
[01:53.55]From the grave beyond.
[01:55.02]Oh, so pernicious,
[01:56.02]Her soul it creates song.
[01:57.58]As there is no man, that is
[01:58.99]Here upon the earth,
[02:00.20]Able to terminate our
[02:01.23]Noisome will since birth.
[02:02.76]The priest that reads the sermons,
[02:04.46]Is walking next to me,
[02:05.69]To the stake, my last request,
[02:06.92]To have her burn with me.
[02:07.98]But, so it did, the heavens opened,
[02:09.48]Rain began to fall.
[02:10.66]The final judgement came, and
[02:11.93]Was spread before you all.
[02:23.23]Final judgement.
[03:04.34]Old, weak, and feeble,
[03:05.67]But the lesson taught to me,
[03:06.45]To stay away from evil,
[03:07.99]She doesn’t care for me.
[03:08.98]She haunts me in my sleep,
[03:10.23]Though I tore that page away.
[03:11.56]And, here on Devils Island,
[03:12.70]I’ll always have to stay.
[03:17.57]Devils island, devils island.
[03:26.38]Devils island, devils island.
[03:35.31]Here I am.
[03:36.37]Devils island, devils island.
[04:23.80]Devils island, devils island.
