light dies in the west

the light dies in the west
and who am I to stand in its way
hidden in the shadows
a study in decay

a vision of truth
holds me tight
you've come to believe I'd die for you
you may be right

and this is true
and all I've come to know
when you're racing with the devil
don't expect to take it slow

and this is true
and all I've ever known
when you're facing down the devil
expect to stand alone

standing in the ocean
receding from the shore
at the end of the world
to say no more

no more...

no more
