Hell is Bright

The devil came up
And asked me
Where I had been
And I told him
“Well, baby
I have sinned.”
And he listened to me
Like one might listen to
The wind
And then he held me in his arms
And we went far away
He said to come down to hell
And he’d take care of me
He said that hell was everything
That I would have to see
So we went to the place
Where everything is bright
The hell where all of your dreams
Are in sight
He said if I tried
Maybe I might…
But I couldn’t reach
Any of my dreams
Because he wouldn’t let go
No he wouldn’t let go of me
And I tried to let go
But I couldn’t let go of me
