lyrics

Mephisto

I WAS LOOKING FOR A HOME WAS SHADOWED BY THE SHADOW OF MEPHISTO AGAIN
I WAS LOOKING FOR A REASON I COULD NOT STAY ANGRY WITH MEPHISTO AGAIN
WHAT IS MY MOVE
WILL I BE MOVED
STUCK INSIDE AN ISLAND GROOVE AGAIN
I WAS LOOKING FOR A STATION STANDING IN DEFIANCE OF MEPHISTO
TO WIN TO WIN

A MAN FROM PENNSYLVANIA SAID TO FIND THE HELPERS THEY CAN FORM A FIST IN THE AIR
WIPE THAT SMILE OFF YOUR FACE YOU THINK I’LL NEVER FIND MY PLACE MEPHISTO
I’LL MAKE A MOVE
I CAN BE MOVED FROM A LAZY AFTERNOON AGAIN
HOW CAN I BE WORTHY WHEN MY HOUSE STILL BEARS THE TRACES OF MEPHISTO
AGAIN AGAIN

A WOMAN OF THE CLOTH TOLD ME A BIT ABOUT YOUR KRYPTONITE MEPHISTO
LOVING SINNERS ISN’T EASY I CAN BARELY LOVE MYSELF MEPHISTO
ALWAYS UNMOVED
ALWAYS CONFUSED
FEEDING ON A TOXIC STREAM ALL DAY
HOW’D YOU DO IT HOW’D YOU PUT AN EXPIRATION DATE ON ALL MY FEELINGS
MEPHISTO

I WAS SHADOWED BY A SHADOW I WAS SHADOWED BY A SHADOW
I WAS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STAY I SAW THE SHADOW OF MEPHISTO
AGAIN AGAIN
