Watched the Devil

I watched the devil bite his lips in the night
While the jester's getting kicked out of the bar
Tyrants making plans behind the door
Sending all them good boys down to war
A thief in the night stole the eyes
Of a puzzled mind
It's and new thing everybody knows
It's one of a kind

Lalalala let me tell you of a time that I can't let go
When I used to walk outside into the snow
Now I'm thinking of the world and it's going
Down down down down down

I saw the gold on the table getting dull
But the gambler didn't even mind at all
Yeah he said: "Jack take everything you can
Don't you know that riches make a man?"
There were crows in the tree
And writings on the wall
Take a look down drain
Just for long enough until you fall

Lalalalala let me sing a song of the good old times
Didn't even get a chance to say goodbeye
Now the numbers that I used to dial are dead
Lalalalala let the birds sing a song of a thousand years
For the young and the old to save their tears
Can you feel the sand run through your hands
