Green-Eyed Demon Lyrics

Another angel falls...
Another angel falls from the skies
Smashes to the ground
In a whirlwind of white feathers
Another demon claws his way to the surface
Spreads his black wings
As he lusts for more blood

Something expendable was all I craved
To fill a hole in my soul
And I found that in you
You were up against a Russian roulette
With all chambers loaded

EVERYTHING BURNS IF YOU APPLY ENOUGH HEAT
EVERYONE YEARNS PARTED FROM THEIR DESIRE
YOUR INNOCENCE WAS NEVER AN EXCUSE
THAT DREAM WAS YOURS AND NEVER MINE...

A misplaced step got me in debt
It's a debt I can't repay
Even with all the money in this world
Caught in an impending doom
Too late to repent
I'll run and hide in my castle of cards

I don't fear to go slow
Just to stand still
Shun the sniper marks and barricade the gate
My only protection is other people's
People's silence
I have to keep moving

EVERYTHING BURNS IF YOU APPLY ENOUGH HEAT
EVERYONE YEARNS PARTED FROM THEIR DESIRE
YOUR INNOCENCE WAS NEVER AN EXCUSE
THAT DREAM WAS YOURS AND NEVER MINE...
IF THEY FIND ME THEY WILL DROWN ME
IN A LAKE OF FIRE
I WILL NEVER REGRET WHAT I DID
EVEN AS I EXPIRE

Every word you said was ammunition to me
I emptied a clip into your face to discover your identity
Behind the mask
Behind the ragged mask
A green eyed demon
Behind the mask
Behind the ragged mask
A green eyed demon

EVERYTHING BURNS
EVERYTHING BURNS
EVERYTHING BURNS

EVERYTHING BURNS IF YOU APPLY ENOUGH HEAT
EVERYONE YEARNS PARTED FROM THEIR DESIRE
YOUR INNOCENCE WAS NEVER AN EXCUSE
THAT DREAM WAS YOURS AND NEVER MINE...

EVERYTHING BURNS
EVERYONE YEARNS
EVERYTHING BURNS
EVERYONE YEARNS

IF THEY FIND ME THEY WILL DROWN ME
IN A LAKE OF FIRE
I WILL NEVER REGRET WHAT I DID
EVEN AS I EXPIRE
