Lyrics

-Deep Blue Sea- Wading through the mud and water, up to my knees Got to stay one step ahead, just out of reach Tell me, Lord, can I take my soul and wash it clean Before I’m swept into the depths of the deep blue sea The devil whispers “You and I are both hellbound I’m just waiting until all of your hope runs out Then, dear boy, you’ll be dead before you hit the ground And it won’t be long before you’re gone and six feet down.” Chorus: I’ve been hearing voices in my sleep again Telling me to give it up and play their game Defeat is in the air, but should I breathe it in? Because if I do, life just won’t be the same The sickness took a hold of me and my heart gave way I killed the better man in me, he was just dead weight I drowned him in the swamp and watched him drift away Because it’s better to be at the devil’s right hand than in his way There’s a noose that’s waiting for me back in town Been on the run for days, but should I turn around? Because I could change and be saved, that’s all I think about But I just can’t bear to let the hangman down
