lyrics

here is me and my guilt
and i've done what i can
cheating and gambling for some dosh in my hands
when i crash on the pavement
wake up in my sick
i'll get up on my knees
to the gods i will pray
for a dance with the demons on the devil's highway

here is me going down
with a promise for you
if you give me a last kiss you'll be going down to
here's me ill on me pallet
coughing blood sweating speed
when i'm down in the gutter
i look up into the sky
and the sky's never blue and i wish i could die

now i'm all empty pockets
and they want their pay back
in return for their favours those angels in black

and the crowd will be cheering
as they walk me away
for my last dance down the devil's highway
