The Devil's Arcade
I became whole
But my body was broken
Ridden with age,
I grabbed my last token
Into the machine
My luck was spent
The scythe to my back
To Hell I was sent
Hell is a hole
Hell is a mountain
Whether you fall
Or whether you found it
You climb and you reach
But the air just gets thinner
You grind at your teeth
But you are the dinner
You fight and you wrythe
But the chains cut you deeper
You find what was lost
And why you can't keep her
I left my soul
In a devil's arcade
'Neath a pile of clubs
Hearts diamond and spades
I tasted the blood
And sulfur and ash
The wine hit my teeth
Like a tamer's quick lash
My body was broken
Whole was I made
When I sold my soul
In the devil's arcade
