[Verse] Boots sinking deep in the blackened mud A trail of bones where the forest stood The moon don't shine for the likes of me Just shadows howling in the trees [Chorus] Many's the poor devil I've killed Fed on their flesh when the night stood still A fire burns where my heart should be The Devil's table was set for me [Verse 2] Frost on my breath but my soul runs hot Each mile I walk another name forgot I drank their lives like bitter wine Their screams are ghosts in this head of mine [Prechorus] I ain’t no man of grace or prayer Just a beast with hunger and despair [Chorus] Many's the poor devil I've killed Fed on their flesh when the night stood still A fire burns where my heart should be The Devil's table was set for me [Bridge] The cold wind whispers my wicked fame It carries my sins but won’t speak my name I ain't proud but I ain't ashamed The grave and I are just the same
