I looked to the dark side of the road
'Cos my eyes were aching from the light
I walked across that lonesome highway
Like stepping from the day into the night
I still wore my childhood dreams
Like someone else might wear a coat
My hands shoved deep into the pockets
My heart stuck way up in my throat
(Chorus)
And sure enough I found there what I came for
In the wind
And though I can't remember every detail
I think I'm sleeping with demons again
Sleeping with demons again
I had partaken of their pleasures
But that was in my younger days
And though temptation led me to salvation
We had never really parted ways
Their whispers always kept me thinking
Their promises were empty lies
A better man could see the baseless beauty
A lesser man...he never tries
Repeat Chorus
I can't give my heart to Jesus
'Cos it's been ripped right from my chest
A one-way ticket to damnation
To be cast off like all the rest
