Devil's Daughter

Best you don't make one mistake with the devil’s daughter
Said the old man, and I thought him quite mad
He pressed to my hand an old photograph
and told me how he met her
And how he wished he never had

He came to an old house in a woods in inclement weather
He was cold and saw a light on inside
She stood there in the doorway with a look that said to come and get her... fire, fire, fire in her eyes...

For 6 days and 6 nights and 6 candles by the bed he had her
While she screamed out the words from a book bound in human leather
Frozen with fear, said the old man, but I knew better…

Hungry for the feel of fire
Blistering in Lake Desire
Fire….

Home he returned with a hollow feeling and a heavy pressure
The town had risen up against a crime beyond all measure
The children lay dead, they found the woman and the book of leather

I couldn’t stop them as they tied her
A wooden stake and then they tried her….
Fire…

Were they really poisoned by her?
A village full of fools and liars
Fire…
