Devil On The Road

from The People I Know by Crazy Old Maurice

/

lyrics

Something that we all know but don’t speak
Something you said, but you heard it from me
The road is too rough to walk it alone
The buffeting winds and the blankets of snow
Stay here inside where it’s safe and it’s warm
Not like the storm outside of that door
But if you must go to see for yourself
There’s something you need to know

When you walk out that door, know there’s a devil on the road
He’ll lead you through fields filled with dusty drying bones
He’ll show you the darkest things that you should never know
And he’ll plant them deep down in your dusty drying soul

Something you heard from over the sea
Something you said, but never to me
‘Cause all of your time was purchased with gold
And shimmering things – you left me in the cold
I did my best to see through your eyes
Something you never tried doing with mine
If you were here I’d tell you to go
But there’s something you need to know

When you walk out that door, know there’s a devil on the road
He’ll lead you through fields filled with your own drying bones
He’ll show you the darkest things you’ll wish you’d never known
And he’ll plant them deep down in your dusty drying soul
