lyrics

Haunted, haunted
By all that you wanted
By decoded answers
Of pretend necromancers
You were all that I thought of
All along Jacksons Garden
Now who would’ve thunk it
I’m taking it to Vaudeville

But Erik, be level
Are you indeed the devil

Well, what did you conjure
What ghastly cadaver
The long longed for message
Was a fraudulent ‘Forgive’
I heard the papers mention
Your aerial suspension
Guess it pays to be tragic
Mama shake me, I’m magic

But Erik, be level
Are you indeed the devil

Cuz I’m still in the grip of you dangling three floors up above
A well dressed crowd on a Thursday at The Vancouver Sun
How did you ever get down?
How did you get it undone?

Could we be mistaken
Our confidence breaking
We exposed false idols
We vanquished our rivals
Still I trace your footsteps
And I wait for an answer
But you know that kind of thinking
You know that it can be poison
You know that it can be poisonous
It can be as poisonous, as poisonous as cancer

So Erik, be level
Are you the devil

Now listen to me Weisz
Do you even believe in the bible?
So he just had to try him
And at Detroit Grace
He got away
On All Hallows' Eve
No more tricks up his sleeve
But oh Rosabelle
Do you still believe?
Can you understand
Ten years is long enough
To wait for any man
