Outwit the Devil
Noel Heroux, William John Herome Mason
you made a deal
when times were tough
when what you had
was not enough
your wings were clipped
mouth was dry
you sold a gift
that is why
you've got to
outwit the devil
he’s got you pinned
mirrors and smoke
there seems no end
to his great joke
losing friends
emptiness grows
the only thing
that you know
you’ve got to
outwit the devil
it is hard
to right the boat
when it wasn’t
made to float
we’ve carried it
for so long
we let go
down it comes
outwit the devil
