V1

When I first met him I didn't know

That all he wanted was my soul

Said he wanted to be my friend

When he reached out and took my hand

He wasn't scary like you think

He was wearin' white and had an angels face

He started talkin' before I knew

We were down the road a mile or two

CH

He'll take you farther than you wanna go

Show you hurt like you've never known

You lose yourself one step at a time

He'll keep you longer than you wanna stay

Cost you more than you wanna pay

Oh the road to hell begins

Holdin' the Devils Hand

I heard him whisper in my ear

He told me things I wanted to hear

And with every lie that left his lips

I felt him tighten up his grip

He leaned in and pulled me close

Said I aint ever gonna let you go

And it was then I realized

How far he'd led me from the light

BR

I spent a lot a' years

Watching all my demons dancing there laughin' at me

Oh but finally, I said I wanna be free, Lord set me free

V3

The light came down all at once

I felt nailed scarred hands pick me up

He looked the Devil in the eye

He said you can't have him this one's mine

Get your hands off him, cause this ones mine
