Song for the Devil

Need I remind you what's at stake
I don't need to tell you
It's your bones, they can break

And once we're bound
You'll hear the sound
That wonded lovers make
It's just a song, for the devil's sake

I've seen the winter
Dance around your face
I don't know which is colder
Your stillness or this place

For I have found
That frozen ground
Makes for a shallow grave
And a stone, you'll have to replace

And when will you
Come to claim
All that I have kept
At the corners of my name

It's a tired though
The one that's wrought
From experience's flame
Will it smoke me out again?
