[Intro – distant crickets, single acoustic guitar string, faint rattle of iron chain] Moon hangs thin and broken Wind don't make no sound [Verse 1 – raw fingerpicked acoustic, slow chain shuffle] Dust don't settle on the road tonight Crows all quit their crying Every shadow on the fence line moves You can feel him getting close [Verse 2 – harmonica hums under guitar, chains drag slower] You locked the door you barred the gate Said your prayers three times But he don't care about no holy word He already knows your name [Chorus – gritty baritone, harmonica wail, chains strike on beat] You can run you can hide you can beg and lie But the demon coming for you Ain't no god ain't no gun gonna turn him round He knows every wrong you done [Verse 3 – guitar drops lower, chains rattle quieter] He don't knock he don't call he just waits outside Watching your candle burn He can smell the fear behind your eyes He got all night to wait [Chorus – vocals grow rougher, harmonica twists sharp] You can run you can hide you can burn your lies But the demon coming for you Ain't no deal ain't no price gonna buy him off He came just for you tonight [Bridge – only guitar and distant harmonica, no percussion] Every debt comes due sometime Every dark thing catches up You thought you got away back then You were only waiting [Solo – haunted wailing harmonica, slow dragging chain rhythm] (Instrumental Solo) [Chorus – almost spoken, raw and quiet, chains barely moving] You can stop breathing you can close your eyes But the demon's here for you Door creaks open now don't make a sound He ain't gonna hurt you long [Outro – single guitar note, one final chain rattle, harmonica fades into silence] He's leaning on your doorframe now You can stop holding your breath
