I heard the sound of the closing door Woke up to find no one was besides me Morning had come and caught me unaware The devil never gives signs of warning Is this the price I have to pay For all the beauty my heart plunders? If you set my soul on fire Who will put it out when you're gone? The fires of hell surround me Saints and sinners wait for your call I can't remember, I can't recall, The steps I took on the road I travelled I fell asleep on a quiet summer day I lost my way in the heart of darkness And still I find it hard to tell The devil's music plays, I wonder… If you set my soul on fire
Who will put it out when you're gone? The fires of hell surround me Saints and sinners wait for your call There, where my memory's laid to rest And the serpents crawl and kiss Underneath the marble weights Where my heart still beats I'm turning I'm twisting, revolving, retrieving When the hour strikes again I'll be reborn If you set my soul on fire Who will put it out when you're gone? The fires of hell surround me Saints and sinners wait for your call If you set my soul on fire Who will put it out when you're gone? The fires of hell surround me Saints and sinners wait for your call
