Hellfire, Night-Crier

Hellfire, night-crier
I hear you callin'
I hear you callin' me

Back-door jackdaw
I hear you callin'
I hear you callin' me

Back-door jackdaw
I can't keep the score with you no more
Hellfire, night-crier
I can't satisfy you no more

Black hole in my soul
I hear you callin'
I hear you callin' me

Cheap-thrill whippoorwill
I hear you callin'
I hear you callin' me

Black hole in my soul
I can't gain control of you
Cheap-thrill whippoorwill
I can no longer hold you still

I hear you callin', you call my name
So sweet, so plain
Black hole in my soul
Cheap-thrill whippoorwill
Hellfire, night-crier
Back-door jackdaw
