It came to me when I was six

With open flame and candlesticks

Came again when I was ten

With my heartbeat in his hand

We sat inside the apple box

And read the book of snakes

And every word of hope and love

And teeth and eyes and hate

Come sit with me, imagine this

Your every dream, a granted wish

But when you age, the deal we made

Will bring me back and you will pay

You never trade with 666

The devil takes the graveyard shift

But if you pray the truth away

He'll make it quick on promise day

We sat inside the apple box

And read the book of snakes

And every word of hope and love

And teeth and eyes and hate

It's said to me when I come back

You will have grown into a man

And we will speak about your son

And how I tricked another one

We sat inside the apple box

And read the book of snakes

And every word of hope and love

And teeth and eyes and hate
