Crossroads at Midnight

The river runs low where the shadows lie

A train whistle screams like a ghost gone by

The ground is cracked and the air won’t cry

At the crossroads at midnight

Where the moon don’t shine so bright

I’m gonna gamble with my soul tonight

I’ve been chasing echoes down an empty street

Every step I take

I hear the devil’s beat

Sweat on my brow

The heat won’t retreat

Will I lose

Will I win

The game starts where the end begins

At the crossroads at midnight

Where the moon don’t shine so bright

I’m gonna gamble with my soul tonight

The wind whispers secrets through the ancient trees

My hands are shaking like the autumn leaves

Fate’s got a grin

It’s got no reprieve
