Though I've walked down a crooked path
Fm
That don't mean that it wasn't cursed
G#
My feeble heart was filled with wrath
Fm
My poison mind with thoughts perverse
D# C#
And the devil is living in my basement
D# C#
I'm trying hard to hide him from my wife
D# C#
And I know someday I'm gonna have to face him
D# C#
But for now I keep my secrets with the night
G# D# C# D#
G#
As I breeze through this windy city
Fm
The devil he now rides upon my back
And all the boys here look mighty pretty
I need a fix and lord, I need it fast
D# C#
I let my houseguests rest in my crawlspace
Don't let anyone tell you that I'm a bad host
I take cover behind my white facepaint
While I battle my bitter father's ghost

And by now the hounds have surely caught my scent
Fm
In just a short time I'm no longer free
Oh lord you know I would repent
But the devil he now speaks for me
D# C#
And the icy needle kisses my veins
As I kiss my dear sister goodbye
Now as I descend into the final flames
It's my turn to die
