Lyrics:
[Heavy Blues Intro]
[Verse 1]
There are times in this life,
Looking back at what’s been done,
When, listlessly, we wander
Underneath the Devil’s sun.
As our skin cracks and blisters,
A melody rings unsung.
Our minds are left to suffer,
From these thoughts we can’t outrun.
[Pre-Chorus]
So with destruction in my hands,
I walk off into the unknown,
Blinded by sand and fire,
To face a hell of my own.
[Chorus]
As the smoke clears from the wreckage,
this hollow heart cries for a home.
Once a soul so strong and cherished,
Now bleeds forgotten and alone.
Still I search to find that passage,
Out of this desert in which I roam.
Where my dreams have all but perished,
Underneath the Devil’s sun.
[Blue Guitar Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Spirits dance within the pavement,
Whispers of dreams that soon will fade.
In the heat of desperation,
I take solace in hidden shade.
Through the haze of my memories,
I chase shadows of lies I’ve spun,
But they vanish, these apparitions,
Once underneath the Devil’s sun.
[Chorus]
As the smoke clears from the wreckage,
this hollow heart cries for a home.
Once a soul so strong and cherished,
Now bleeds forgotten and alone.
Still I search to find that passage,
Out of this desert in which I roam.
Where my dreams have all but perished,
Underneath the Devil’s sun.
[Bridge]
And from the twilight,
I hear their call,
A symphony of sorrow,
It’s bittersweet thrall.
Still, I dance with demons,
Now snared within their spin.
Aware that when the music stops,
[Music Stops]
I’ll see just how alone I’ve been.
[Music Starts]
[Haunting Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
As the smoke clears from the wreckage,
this hollow heart cries for a home.
Once a soul so strong and cherished,
Now bleeds forgotten and alone.
Still I search to find that passage,
Out of this desert in which I roam.
Where my dreams have all but perished,
Underneath the Devil’s sun.
[Band Stops]
I pray I find that passage,
From underneath the Devil’s sun.
[Band Starts]
[Laid Back Blues Guitar Solo Outro]
Seems a little quiet over here
