Here's a story--

I took a country ride one day

When the rivers froze and the sun began to grey

It was rainin'

I lost control and hit a tree

Well when i looked up

Saw a house in front of me

Well she let me in

There was magic in her eyes

I wish i could have seen through her disguise



And you...

Sharpen your horns

Light up the night

Twisting your tongue

And it leaves you up in the air

Sharpen your horns

Light up the night

Twisting your tongue

And it leaves you up in the air



Well she's wearing

A green crystal round her neck

Yes, it helps her with her concentration

And she's chanting

Her words are healing my cracked head

But the meaning defies explanation



And you...

Sharpen your horns

Light up the night

Twisting your tongue

And it leaves you up in the air

Sharpen your horns

Light up the night

Twisting your tongue

And it leaves you up in the air



Maid of fire

I gave my life to her

Made a pact i had to keep

I sold my soul to her

Tricked by a devil girl

I sold my soul to her



Time is runnin' down

I could be crazy!

Man, i sold my soul for seven years of fame

But i'm lookin' back

And i'm thinkin' maybe

The mark you make

The claim you stake

These are the things remembered when you're gone



Sharpen your horns

Light up the night

Twisting your tongue

And it leaves you up in the air
