Ain't Going Down This Way lyrics

I see the morning light

come screaming thru my room,

I feel the devil's eyes

and smell his cold perfume.

There is no mercy here,

could not be a darker day,

but I ain't going down,

I ain't going down this way.

Oh I know your face,

I've seen it a thousand times,

In my darkest dream

I have witnessed every single crime.

You think I'm joking,

I'm wet with fear,

but I've made up my mind today,

I ain't going down,

I ain't going down this way.
