A monument you've made of the thorny earth
A testimony of power
Your measure of worth 

Spun the spiral that reached up to the sky
And the ocean's great voice
Swelled up to defy 

The Devil's boots don't creak
What are you listening for?
The Devil's boots don't creak
No matter what the floor 

The moment came and passed in the blink of an eye
With no trace of remorse
Or a cloud in the sky 

Eternity's not a prize that you can reclaim
And in the twilight of time
No one else is to blame 

Information much too great to still sustain the world you know
Where else can you go?
Still the boots walk on 

The Devil's boots don't creak
What are you listening for?
The Devil's boots don't creak
No matter what the floor 

Information much too great to still sustain the world you know
Where else can you go?
Still the boots walk on 

The Devil's boots don't creak
What are you listening for?
The Devil's boots don't creak
No matter what the floor
