I’ve walked through the Halls of Karma  
I shook hands with both the Devil and God  
They turned my eyes to the inside to see  
Where my energies have gone  
Yes, I’ve run with both all through my life  
I’ve respected and reflected them both  
Yes, the sympathy of God as he looked at my life  
The excitement of the Devil as we talked

One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble  
Not much between despair and ecstasy  
One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble  
Can’t be too careful with your company  
I can feel the devil walking next to me

You look like an angel (Look like an angel)  
Walk like an angel (Walk like an angel)  
Talk like an angel  
But I got wise  
You’re the devil in disguise  
Oh, yes you are  
The devil in disguise, mmm  
You fooled me with your kisses  
You cheated and you schemed  
Heaven knows how you lied to me  
You’re not the way you seem

Hollow doll, you lied again  
Don’t come here to pray so full of lie  
Those fantasies invade like a cancer forms inside  
Regarding the pain I’m counting again  
Recover from this doll who you burning for

This is the healing way, the light is yours  
I can’t forget  
And I can’t escape  
It’s kind of warm, kind of pain, I can’t explain  
I came here to feel this way  
My feelings are dead

Nothing here is quite the same

Shot through the heart, and you’re to blame  
You give love a bad name (bad name)  
I play my part and you play your game  
You give love a bad name (bad name)  
Hey, you give love  
A bad name

Now, I don’t mean to bother you  
But I’m in distress  
There’s danger of me losing all of my happiness  
For I love a girl who doesn’t know I exist  
And this you can fix  
Soooo  
Cupid, draw back your bow  
And let your arrow go  
Straight to my lover’s heart for me, nobody but me  
Cupid, please hear my cry  
And let your arrow fly  
Straight to my lover’s heart for me

Candy took the pearls, got ahead of the girls  
Got on top and found the secret entrance  
Are you satisfied?

Through neon doors, 'cross killing floors  
She got sucked into a champagne desert  
Are you satisfied?

Mirrors on the ceiling  
The pink champagne on ice  
And she said “We are all just prisoners here, of our own device”  
And in the master’s chambers  
They gathered for the feast  
They stab it with their steely knives  
But they just can’t kill the beast

Someday you will find me

I took my love, I took it down  
Climbed a mountain and I turned around  
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills  
'Til the landslide brought me down

Listen, baby  
Ain’t no mountain high  
Ain’t no vally low  
Ain’t no river wide enough, baby  
If you need me, call me  
No matter where you are  
No matter how far  
Just call my name  
I’ll be there in a hurry  
You don’t have to worry
