Cell With Horns

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They booked me in, head down Orange cloth, hard ground My name on a cold sheet My heart in a slow beat The bunk scratched my spine raw I heard claws on the floor Three knocks from the steel wall Then a grin in the dark hall He said, "Boy, you look torn up" I said, "Why you so calm, huh?" He laughed like a loose chain Said, "I know your real name" [Pre-Chorus] I smelled smoke in the vent line Saw red in the meal tray He leaned where the light died And I felt my soul sway [Chorus] Devil in my cell Devil in my cell He said, "Tell me what you sell" Devil in my cell Devil in my cell Devil in my cell I hear that iron bell Devil in my cell [Verse 2] He said, "You scared of the count now? You scared when the lights out?" I said, "I been in the mud, pal I seen what the love bout" He smiled with a split lip Said, "You want out, I got scripts" "Sign here with your quick wrist And I can make the walls shift" I said, "I don't trust your sweet talk I don't trust your fake peace" He stepped back with a cold breath Then the lock made a deep scream [Pre-Chorus] I prayed through my dry mouth He circled like a rumor The shadows grew long teeth In the corner of the room, yeah [Chorus] Devil in my cell Devil in my cell He said, "Tell me what you sell" Devil in my cell Devil in my cell Devil in my cell I hear that iron bell Devil in my cell [Bridge] Now the night got a fever And the sink drips black water He said, "I can be your keeper Or I can take you farther" I looked at that cracked mirror Saw my face turn to cinder Then I laughed in his fire Said, "I ain't yours in this winter" [Final Chorus] Devil in my cell Devil in my cell He said, "Tell me what you sell" Devil in my cell Devil in my cell Devil in my cell I hear that iron bell Devil in my cell Devil in my cell (Devil scream) Devil in my cell I won't go quiet here
