[00:21.278]The devil nearly died
[00:23.563]In the middle of the night
[00:26.144]With no-one by his side, but me
[00:31.856]I'm paralyzed with fear
[00:34.224]At a pair for one more year
[00:36.817]He lamented his career
[00:39.295]And he softly spoke these words
[00:47.452]He said please stay by my side
[00:54.552]'Cause I don't want to die tonight
[00:58.160]Even now I can't deny this gradual descent into abandonment
[01:08.516]As a lonely man now I resign to just pretend
[01:16.507]To be anxiously here waiting for an end
[01:30.695]The devil nearly cried
[01:32.909]I could see it in his eyes
[01:35.488]The conviction of a life of crime
[01:41.127]I whispered in his ear
[01:43.408]"Life is not to be revered
[01:46.101]It will always disappear
[01:48.648]Just when you need it most"
[01:56.496]So he said please stay by my side
[02:03.825]'Cause I don't want to die tonight
[02:07.434]Even now I can't deny this gradual descent into abandonment
[02:17.840]As a lonely man now I resign to just pretend
[02:25.850]To be anxiously here waiting for an end
[02:30.243]And the moment comes and my breath is gone
[02:33.760]Don't look away
[02:39.143]'Cause you have not seen what it truly means to be alive
[02:47.216]Until you've seen yourself inside a dead man's eyes
[03:11.191]Even now I can't deny this gradual descent into abandonment
[03:21.752]As a lonely man now I resign to just pretend
[03:29.834]To be anxiously here waiting for an end
