Mephistopheles Lyrics
All of your life now you have denied
There'd be a time when you'd ever die
Still it's been rumored this thing must be
Why is it then that you act surprised
When I appear now to be your guide
Why do you hesitate to follow me
See it rising
Stare and wonder
Hear it beckon you to dance
Feel it hold you
Take you under
I'm your god of second chance
And now you claim you are not prepared
So much to do you can not be spared
Still your entreaties death will not hear
The graveyard is filled with important men
Who could not be spared but were in the end
And so I whisper now in your ear
See it rising
Stare and wonder
Hear it beckon you to dance
Feel it hold you
Take you under
I'm your god of second chance
Domine
Domine
Domine
Domine
O domine
O domine
O domine
O domine
There'd be a time when you'd ever die
Still it's been rumored this thing must be
When I appear now to be your guide
Why do you hesitate to follow me
Stare and wonder
Hear it beckon you to dance
Take you under
I'm your god of second chance
So much to do you can not be spared
Still your entreaties death will not hear
Who could not be spared but were in the end
And so I whisper now in your ear
Stare and wonder
Hear it beckon you to dance
Take you under
I'm your god of second chance
Domine
Domine
Domine
O domine
O domine
O domine
O domine

This song gives me chills. It's about the futility of life, and when you die you'll wish you had a second chance. The devil will give you that second chance...for a fee, of course.
