Large Flying Mammal - Devil in Gray Lyrics

I heard a tale about a man
With the power to change
For a minimal fee
Have your life reclaimed
Made it to the crossroads
Traveled all night
To see if there was
A deal he could strike
A bargain
A yearning
Binding and burning
A silver tongued salesman
In a gray suit
The beast laid it out
Told me the terms
Put a pen in my hand
And told me where to mark
A loose deal was signed
Separated my mind
Scars reappeared
My true nature shown
I thought he was like me
A friend indeed
Instead a devil in gray
Soul twisted by greed
He told me...
I could have it all
All that he needed
My tormented soul
Lament for fools
Both young and old
In return he bought himself
A watch wreathed in gold
He played his cards
But Kept them close to the vest
Lined his pockets with coins
Left you to clean the mess
A friend indeed
To a fiend in need
He'd smile you'd sign
A chance to be redefined
I thought he was like me
Seen the evil I'd seen
Instead a devil in gray
Soul controlled by greed
He told me
I could have it all
All that he needed
My tormented soul
Lament for fools
Both young and old
For a weathered heart
He bought himself a watch
Wreathed in gold
I learned my lesson
Trust not a snake or his oil
Got his hand in your pocket
Stealing the spoils
I left those lonely crossroads
I had the deed in my hand
And a watch wreathed in gold
And a brand new plan
