Highway to the Grave

Highway to the grave To the chambers of death He has no sense following her to the slaughter Seductive words led him astray Breaking the covenant with his eyes, drinking deeply of lust - seduced by smooth talk Persuasive, O so persuasive she led him astray it will cost him his life Many victims she has slaughtered Unruly, defiant and brazen In the dark of night she seeks out her prey Highway to the grave To the chambers of death Seductive words never sounded so bitter, knowing lust will cost him his life. This is a warning. Act on temptation drinking deeply of lust It will cost you your life Turn away from the Highway to the grave From the chamber of death Keep the covenant with your eyes Fortify your heart Keep His commands and you will live.
