I'll Take You Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The devil lives in the city
Seen him dancing in the alley
I can tell you wont see him
Well i cant,where's his crown
The sun sets on the city
He's the darkness in the doorway
He's the shadow on the subway
How you growl
Not a sound
Chorus
I'll take you down
(down down down)
Verse 2
The devil lives in the city
Among the theives and lovers
Every hour every evening
What is lost, he has found
Many fools take the money
And get nothing for nothing
He's always sitting alway waiting
To let the merry go round
Bridge
Where do you go now
I'll lay you down
I'll take you down
