The Devil's Feet

Azure Ray

When I was a child a story was told

About the devil and a girl oh so bold

He offered her riches, a fortune of gold

And lovers abound

But she lifted her soul

She lifted her soul clean oh clean

And like the story was told

On a dark country road

The same man appeared to me

But I reached

I reached

Through the rain to the devil's feet

Now twenty years later to the place i return

Where I scorned the angels

For a passion that burned

There set in the tree a knot twisted and turned

The face of a creature hell bound

So long ago could my mind

Have played jokes on me

As darkness sets in unavoidable sin

The truth i try not to believe

That I reached I reached

Through the rain to the devil's feet
