In the bitter dark you cried to us Saying "please, I'm in a mess..are you here, are you free?
There's something that I have to tell you please meet me here at 10 don't be late"
Don't be in a rush, please have some patience with me. I've made a deal, a deal of which I can't break free
Give me a minute, I'll explain everything..have patience
Listen, this what what they said to me
"We'd love to have your offering"
Immobile I stood in place
"Here with us, know that you're safe"
On your shoulders, I grow
In your mind I will rest
I guess you want to know
Who'll be writing your checks
Given the choice of this hole
I showed my face
I have no where to go
Please excuse my taste
Momma, I'm sorry this wasn't how this was supposed to go
Given the choice of this hole I know where I will go, just show me
Please rescue me
Oh, no. The devil...he calmed me..in the night
I made choices in my life, nothing like this though
I willing to sacrifice, this selfish ego
"Not just your ego, you life. Not just your life, your soul. In time you'll see this is more than what you think
So much more, so much more than what you see"
But you're scaring me, can you please tell me what this all means?
I'm terrified, please tell me why this is happening to me
He said "you are my host, my gift, my slave, my prey"
He shined brighter than gold, with eyes dull as clay
I accepted his offer, my fault is that of my own
Maybe I'll find solace here, maybe ill be made of stone
You don't know me, i don't know me at all
So we went on our way, he looked at me and said "do you remember the day you came to me and said this is what you want? now you got it"
