I feel him when I sleep
See his face at every turn
One mistake is all it takes
For an eternity to burn
Made a deal with the devil
Now he’s coming for me
To drag my soul to hell
To collect his standard fee
I’m counting down the days
Had it tattooed on my skin
For a constant reminder of
The day they call my next of kin

I met him at a crossroad
He offered me a deal
I thought nothing of it
I didn’t think it was real
I met him at a crossroad
On a dark and stormy night
Now he’ll drag my soul to hell
If I don’t put up a fight

Just as the clock strikes twelve
He starts knocking at my door
I guess this is something
I can no longer ignore
The night that I met him
I pretended it was a dream
That the world was the same
As it always had been
But now he’s banging on my door
And he will get inside
I knew I couldn’t run away
But I didn’t get time to hide

I met him at a crossroad
He offered me a deal
I thought nothing of it
I didn’t think it was real
I met him at a crossroad
On a dark and stormy night
Now he’ll drag my soul to hell
If I don’t put up a fight

He whispered to me
Just close your eyes
You won’t feel a thing
But it was all lies
There was a searing pain
As my soul was torn away
That deal we made was
Ten years ago today

I met him at a crossroad
He offered me a deal
I thought nothing of it
I didn’t think it was real
I met him at a crossroad
On a dark and stormy night
Now he’ll drag my soul to hell
I didn’t put up a fight
