[Verse]
Underneath the twisted branches where the wild things grow,
I met a man in black, and he said he'd let me know,
The secrets of the night, whispered soft and low,
Where redemption's shadow dances, and dark rivers flow.
[Verse 2]
He offered wine and wisdom from a chalice carved in bone,
His eyes were pale as sorrow, his voice a hollow moan,
"Lay your burden down, son, leave the righteous throne,"
In the valley of the forsaken, is where I'd make my home.
[Chorus]
No more lies, no more cries, in the Devil’s arms,
Where the wicked find their solace, and false hope disarms,
Through the fire, through the pain, through the broken charms,
I'll follow shadows into darkness, away from holy farms.
[Verse 3]
With every step, the whispers grew, a choir of despair,
Souls lost to the night, in the heavy, hanging air,
Forgive me not, for I've chosen this burden I bear,
Worshiping the night, in the Devil's snare.
[Chorus]
No more lies, no more cries, in the Devil’s arms,
Where the wicked find their solace, and false hope disarms,
Through the fire, through the pain, through the broken charms,
I'll follow shadows into darkness, away from holy farms.
[Bridge]
In the smoldering embers of my soul, there's a revelation,
A symphony of sins, in this dark congregation,
Where the prayers of the lost echo without salvation,
I'm bound to the night, in eternal damnation.
