Lyrics: Signed my name in crimson ink Traded years I'll never see Corner office, fortieth floor But something's watching over me Every deal comes with a price Every contract binds the soul Racing shadows on the wall While my master takes control Golden chains and silver lies Climbing higher day by day Each promotion costs a piece Of what I'm giving away Every deal comes with a price Every contract binds the soul Racing shadows on the wall While my master takes control The higher that I climb The faster fades my time These powers that I wield Will be my final deal Now I sit upon my throne Empty suits and hollow eyes Was it worth the bargain made? When darkness claims its prize Every deal comes with a price Every contract binds the soul Racing shadows on the wall While my master takes control The contract's almost due And there's nothing left to lose Just shadows on the wall While my master takes it all
Lyrics:
Signed my name in crimson ink
Traded years I'll never see
Corner office, fortieth floor
But something's watching over me
Every deal comes with a price
Every contract binds the soul
Racing shadows on the wall
While my master takes control
Golden chains and silver lies
Climbing higher day by day
Each promotion costs a piece
Of what I'm giving away
Every deal comes with a price
Every contract binds the soul
Racing shadows on the wall
While my master takes control
The higher that I climb
The faster fades my time
These powers that I wield
Will be my final deal
Now I sit upon my throne
Empty suits and hollow eyes
Was it worth the bargain made?
When darkness claims its prize
Every deal comes with a price
Every contract binds the soul
Racing shadows on the wall
While my master takes control
The contract's almost due
And there's nothing left to lose
Just shadows on the wall
While my master takes it all
