The winds are whispering a name
and tears fall from the sky
the devil's on my shoulders singin' haunted lullabies
Our walk along the road reveals a story full o' pain
I wish I'd never come to the so buried by the days
now it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you this lonely road
runs straight to hell
cause it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you this lonely road
runs straight to hell

I curse the day and blame the world
for choices all my own
I got patience of a diamond
whose heart has turned to stone
The blood that's running through my veins
is cold as cold can be
the darkness that I keep inside is surely killin' me
and it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you this lonely road
runs straight to hell
cause it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you this lonely road
runs straight to hell

I see a bird upon the gravestone
who will lead me on my way
I see faces that I recognize
whose names I cannot place
I'm a sinner in the worst way
so please I'm asking you
light a candle say a prayer for me
there's nothin' left to do
cause it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you
this lonely road runs straight to hell
cause it's a slow farewell
My love I sing to you this lonely road runs straight to hell
