He was a Silver Tongue Devil
Standing there he's waiting
and waiting for a ride Looking
for a one way out of this town
And you know I couldn't
let him down
So I asked him how far?
he said as far as you'll
go I just couldn't say no
It was a Thursday
in September or
December The last thing
I remember was the
cloudless sky above
He said he saw
a good friend die
I never thought
to ask him why
I could have sworn I heard
him say he knew who did it
I could have sworn
I heard him say
We headed off into the
dead air of the desert
To a place To a place
I've never known
He stared into the sun
that shone above us
Then he smiled and
spoke how good it was
Yet things change
and they stay the same
Home sweet home
There was a stillness as
the light set behind us
The last thing I remember
was the laughter in my ears
Fearless yet fearful
I stared into his eyes
And he grabbed my hand
I started to fly
Ageless and timeless
as I gave him control
He said that's it my
friend I own your soul
that's all I've
heard him say
that's all I've
heard him say
He said he saw
a good friend die
I never thought
to ask him why
I could have sworn I heard
him say he knew who did it
I could have sworn
I heard him say
then
