DEVIL'S ISLAND LYRICS
"Demo" (2004 Demo)
1. Firecase
2. Black Sea
3. Scars
4. Mercenary
1. Firecase
Burned and thrashed, Looking for a way out;
Smoking flesh, Covers all the ground.
Deaf and shaken I, Moving on trapped inside,
Can’t let shock do me in, Moving on, senselessly.
CHORUS:
Follow me, if you are still alive,
Follow me, into the fire we’ll dive,
Follow me, inferno presses on,
Follow me, or else you’re on your own.
Clean your throat, With a scream for help
Eyes distort, What my mind can’t tell.
Lifting shadows of, Images of hope
Clawing through debris, On salvation spree.
CHORUS
I am dominated
By the smoke that hates me
And in silent meltdown
Feel my breath.
No pain can stopped me
And no scythe can cut me
As I crawl through hell
I am cheating death.
All is black,
Just like both my hands,
Looking back,
I see ghosts of friends.
Then it comes to me,
I am seeing things,
So I shake and move
As a blind man would
CHORUS
2. Black Sea
I Come From the Black Sea, I'm The Devil You WIll Meet
I'm The Speed That Runs Through You, Shot of Pleasure That Will Bury You
Take This Ring and Make Me Believe, White Cross Is All I See
From A Distance of Three Feet, My Blade Seems Pretty Clean
Soon It Will Run Its Course, Blood Dripping On The Floor
Cause Now You WIll See, How Deep Is The Black Sea
Road To Hell For Me Is Laid, I See it Every Day
I'll Take it When I Can, For Now I will Abstain
That Dress is Full of Magic, Full of Pearls, Full of blackness
That Smoke on your Lips, Seems far from my Tips
Through A Window Full of Time, I See That I Want to Die
Rather not, I'm Gonna Kill
Black Sea gives me a Thrill...
CHORUS:
How Far Will You Go, Does It Matter, Not At all
Depends If You Wanna See, The Reach of The Black Sea
CHORUS
CHORUS
3. Scars
In my youth I always swore I’d rule what’s in my world,
But as I’m going out to sea I feel my wrongs unfold.
Haven’t seen what life might be, haven’t been in love,
All I see is yesterdays, in my eyelids carved.
Now the storms of land are gone, but the life goes on,
Sort of like it did before, thirsty and alone.
Sharing food with mice and rats, torture-killing time
On my ship that goes by fast, steering out of line.
CHORUS:
Sun burns down my thoughts
Salt destroys my eyes,
Rats wear down the boards that keep my ship alive.
Hands are full of scars,
But not as full as the
Rusted insides of my mind.
All the nights I spend in clouds, opium induced,
Finest of the kind from all the seaports that I cruised,
And when nothing seems to go right and the food is tight,
I retrieve my only treasure, everything’s alright.
Kind of like a broken driftwood floating in the sea,
Goes my time with no regrets, no, drowning out in me.
I don’t like this style of dying, slowly breaking up;
That is why I look for storms every chance I’ve got.
CHORUS
In my youth I always swore I’d rule what’s in my world,
Now I’m sitting in the hull, counting all my gold,
Like an ancient trader that has turned to dust this way.
I’m a goner sitting here, on this shiny grave.
Waiting for it all to go, waiting to run out,
Of this life, of this Earth, of this tale about
How I tried to be out there, like a hungry wolf,
And now all I have are scars, of my wretched youth.
CHORUS
4. Mercenary
With a strong steady hand, the arm of an ambitious man, the world slips into the damned
Through the portals of lust, you travel one at a time, you only stop on a dime
On a mission you're bent, elected through to the end, the soldier fights for the land
For the ones he cannot, against the armies he fought, ode to the Mercenary
CHORUS:
Angry Dictators, Sinful Martyrs, Citizens of this world Rebellion is Yours
Those who pretend to be strong, the ones that live to the end, to hell them you will send
On the Quest for revenge, the spoils turn to your side, before our whole world collides
Your enemies fall, war will turn into red, the warriors code you will bend
Blood stains your hands, bodies fall on the lands, can't let go of their heads
CHORUS
