The Devil’s Violin

**[Verse 1]** Midnight fire, silver flame Whisper softly, call my name Draw the circle, close the door I want greatness, nothing more Give me music, give me fame Give my hands eternal flame Take my heart, take what you need Just make every note succeed **[Pre-Chorus]** I chased a sound beyond the sky A perfect note that would not die I made my promise in the night And gave my darkness to the light **[Chorus]** Listen to my violin Hear the sorrow, hear the sin Every note I make tonight Carries something I left behind Listen to my violin Hear the fire underneath They can hear the perfect song But they can't hear what it took from me I gave my heart I gave my soul Just to make these strings come alive **[Verse 2]** Days grew shorter, nights grew long All I had was one more song Friends grew distant, love grew cold All I wanted was the gold Blood and sweat upon my hands Still I played as fate demands Every scar and every tear Made the music they came to hear **[Chorus]** Listen to my violin Hear the sorrow, hear the sin Every note I make tonight Carries something I left behind Listen to my violin Hear the fire underneath They can hear the perfect song But they can't hear what it took from me I gave my heart I gave my soul Just to make these strings come alive **[Majestic Solo]** **[Bridge]** What is fame without a name? What is glory without shame? What is beauty, what is art When the price can break a heart? I became the sound I chased I became what time erased And the world can call me great While I disappear behind the fame **[Final Chorus]** Listen to my violin Hear the sorrow, hear the sin Every note I make tonight Still carries what I left behind Listen to my violin Let the final melody ring They will praise the song I made But never know the cost of everything I gave my heart I gave my soul I gave everything to make it whole **[Epic Solo / Outro]**
