They said I wouldn't sleep
I told them: evil never sleeps
They said: go to hell
And slammed the door tight
They thought I’d be crying, flooded with fright
They thought down below I'd gasp for breath, too
That I'd crawl back from dreams, on my knees to you
But I walked down below, opened the gate wide
The devil pulled up a chair, brewed coffee beside
He said: Have a seat, dear, I know you well
Make yourself at home,
Today I'll bid you hell
So many times from the mud I had to rise
Today I'll be the one dealing cards, no surprise
'Cause evil never sleeps, and neither do I
Today I write the script, in my own game I try
When I rise on the left foot, the devil takes flight
I fear no fire, no human in sight
I drink that coffee,
Smile with a chill
It was you who taught me to fight for my will
They wanted an angel, sitting silent in place
Who forgives every wrong and speaks with grace
Now they're shocked, seeing how I've grown
With a tough skin and a heart like stone
You won't curse my fate, or break my word again
From my own ashes, I rise, born again
So many times from the mud I had to rise
Now I'll be the one dealing cards, no surprise
'Cause evil never sleeps, and neither do I
Today I write the script, in my own game I try
When I rise on the left foot, the devil takes flight
I fear no fire, no human in sight
I drink that coffee,
Smile with a chill
It was you who taught me to fight for my will
So don't cross my path at dawn's early stride
Life starts from the left foot's ride
But I, I no longer burn
I am the fire
'Cause evil never sleeps, and neither do I
Today I write the script, in my own game I try
When I rise on the left foot, the devil takes flight
I fear no fire, no human in sight
Go to hell
