the lagan - staring the devil in the eye lyrics
hey!
hey!
three months at sea and we’re still northeast bound
ya know when i can see the lines of home
when they run aground
for the life i lived i knew
i’d reap what i sow
as cruel water claimed the lives of everyone below!
i’d sell me mum and did it you know to keep myself from h-ll!
but a sudden devil standing there right in between the swell
he faced his eyes upon mine, i could not look away
he said “why don’t you join me? you won’t see another day”
(chorus)
lie upon the rocks and raise your hats to the heavens
lie upon the rocks and raise your voices to the sky
enjoy your final prayer for i’m prepared to meet your maker
you’ve left it too light
when you stared the devil in the eye
i threw myself headfirst at the mercy of the sea
and was remembering forgotten prayers i no longer believed
and so i cried out to a god
who’s name was nothing more
than just a curse upon the ones who’d ever done me wrong!
the devil said “you’re joking boy! you’re evil through and through!
tell me while it hadn’t ever worked, now will the likes of you?”
i made the peace with god and so i drew my final breath
i reached out for the devil as he dragged me to my death!
(chorus)
lie upon the rocks and raise your hats to the heavens
lie upon the rocks and raise your voices to the sky
enjoy your final prayers, well i’m prepared to meet your maker
you’ve left it too light
when you stared the devil in the eye
(chorus)
lie upon the rocks and raise your hats to the heavens
lie upon the rocks and raise your voices to the sky
enjoy your final prayers, ’cause i’m prepared to meet your maker
you’ve left it too light
when you stared the devil in the eye
(chorus)
lie upon the rocks and raise your hats to the heavens
lie upon the rocks and raise your voices to the sky
enjoy your final prayers, ’cause i’m prepared to meet your maker
you’ve left it too light
when you stared the devil in the eye
hey!
