I took my possessions (hm, down the road)
And all that I own (hm, down the road)
To set out at nighttime (hm, down the road)
Down the road (oh, down the road)
And with God as my witness (down the road)
There stood a man (down the road)
Dressed in the shadows (down the road)
With blood on his hands (down the road)
There was something so familiar about him
A certain kind of aura pouring all around him
Looking fresh to death, his suit, it was astounding
I caught his eye, and then I felt like I was drowning
(Down the road)
Standing at a crossroads, and the dull glow
Of the lit bulbs flicker silently, quietly
Tiptoe down the long road, and the man spoke
To me quite excitedly, "Hello, dear fellow"
And he tipped his hat, and he smiled invitingly
Who knows why I felt this?
But I felt like someone lit a fire in me
Burn, and I felt my stomach churning
I turned, and I tried to find the wording
Concerned in a feeling, disconcerting
It's strange, but I felt this weird yearning
A craving for something that was urging me over
And then to start conversing
I reached out my hand, he shook it, during
He leaned in and said something disturbing
"All I gotta know is your desires
Is it fame or fortune you aspire?
To get up out this life that you been living?
Follow me, I'll walk you through the fire
I got every type of flavoring
You should see the budget of the catering
And I don't want to come off as a salesman
But I got the taste that you've been savoring
Let your pain go, let the flames grow
I'll read every thought that's on your mind
'Cause I know you got a name, so
Why don't you just write it on this line?
Here, I got a pen and everything
Who needs a wedding ring? I offer the divine
I don't think you fully understand
But I promise that you will in time, so just make a choice"
So I stood frozen (down the road)
At the crossroads of time (down, down the road)
Took hold of his paper (down, down the road)
And I leant down to sign (down)
(Down the road)
(Down, down the road)
(Down, down the road)
(Down)
I still remember back where I was from
See, I was the favourite, the morning sun
See, I had ideas, but they said they're too grand
So they casted me out without reason or doubt
Now there's blood on my hands
See, I've been that one with the silver tongue (down the road)
Yeah, they say I've fallen, but never run
Following a calling (down)
I've been all in with the barrel of a loaded gun (down the road)
Aimed at the masses, at their masses (down, down the road)
Yeah, the darkness gon' get you
You could say a prayer if it helps you (down, down the road)
That cross won't protect you
From the light bringing lost angel (down the road)
Shit, I only came to entertain you (down)
But since we made ourselves a deal
You gon' to be my fucking puppet 'til it breaks you (down the road)
I'ma chain you to the ground (down, down the road)
I'll enslave you, look around
Ain't nobody coming here to save you (down, down the road)
I'ma take you way down
'Cause, yeah, I know I've been around (down the road)
But still I got some shit to prove
And I don't really give a fuck (down the road)
How it's got to happen, but just know that you
Got a fucking deal with the devil written (down the road)
So shut up and listen, or play me some blues
And just know the choice that you made today
Will be the last thing that you ever choose
Down the road
Down the road
Down the road
Down the road
