Faust

Lyrics

[Chorus:] Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours I am a scholar, an alchemist, sitting in my study room Contemplating philosophy and impending doom I'm at the end of the knowledge that I consume In need of change but don't know if change is coming soon So I continue and study the great gospels Searching for more answers making me feel awful All of a sudden I see a man in front of me, who are you? "My name is Mephistopheles I've come to offer a moment of transcendence In which you will stay forever No need to pay any penance" I don't believe you, in fact I think you're just a dream "If that's the case, take my hand and come with me" [Chorus:] Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours He took me on a trip to a place I've never seen And showed me things that most men would not believe I licked the silver spoon, and had the wettest dreams Only to wake up and see him sitting next to me "That was just a taste of a distant place Where there is no disgraceful look upon your face You're more than a name and far from a number So sign the dotted line, come on, let's be blood brothers" As I sit and I wonder Is it worth my very soul to let this man take me under? Fuck it, I sign the line as the heavens thunder Once I was hunted but now I'm becoming the hunter [Chorus:] Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours Hey pig, yeah you Tell me what your gonna do When I take it all from you I said, hey pig, you wanted proof Now I'm gonna give it to you I'm gonna give it to you Hey pig, yeah you Tell me what your gonna do When I take it all from you I said, hey pig, you wanted proof Now I'm gonna give it to you I'm gonna give it to you [Chorus:] Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours Me and the Devil, yeah We're walking side by side, he said Hey boy, just look into my eyes and everything will be yours And I'll give it to you
