Lyrics

[Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine] [Verse 1] The light that fills my lonely cell is blocked out by the key That locks the door to this hell, the place they wanted me Time's racing like the wind, execution's near Oh, Lord, I wait for death, and yes, I have no fear I recall that night, my every breath and step along the way Closed my eyes, walking as danger paved the way The Devil and the darkness, let her evil wander free Here on Devil's Island, the final stop for me [Chorus] Devil's Island Devil's Island [Verse 2] Oh, there is no escape, the sea is full of sharks Tide takes you away and smash you on the rock The sun is shining, but feel not today Its warmth, it's dying and fading away [Chorus] Devil's Island Here I stay, Devil's Island [Verse 3] Oh, hear the call from the grave beyond Oh, so pernicious, her soul it creates song As there is no man that is here upon the Earth Able to terminate our noisome will since birth The priest that reads the sermon is walking next to me To the stake, my last request, to have her burn with me But, so it did, the heavens opened, rain began to fall The final judgment came and was spread before you all! [Bridge] Final judgment... [Guitar Solo: Dave Mustaine] [Verse 4] Old, weak, and feeble, and the lesson taught to me Stay away from evil, she doesn't care for me She haunts me in my sleep, though I tore that page away Here on Devil's Island, I'll always have to stay [Chorus] Devil's Island Devil's Island Devil's Island Devil's Island, here I am [Instrumental Break] [Guitar Solo: Chris Poland] [Outro] Devil's Island, Devil's Island Devil's Island, Devil's Island Devil's Island, Devil's Island Devil's Island, Devil's Island
