the devil in me

i stare it down everyday
a lusty heart tugging on my strings
makes me week in the knees
makes me a slave to the sin of things
i know i know its the devil me
that rolls me in the night
i know i know it’s the devil in me
that makes the wrongs feel right
the devil in me
the devil in me
the devil in me
please please
it’s the devil in me
 
i stroll around my mind
trying to stay clear of the dark corners
lingering on the edge of the light
holding hands with the mourners
i know i know its the devil me
that rolls me in the night
i know i know it’s the devil in me
that makes the wrongs feel right
the devil in me
the devil in me
the devil in me
please please
it’s the devil in me
 
i’m dancing with one hand in the fire
reaching into the heart of desire
i burn burn burn
with nowhere left i turn
to the devil me  
 
i stare it down everyday
a lusty heart tugging on my strings
makes me week in the knees
makes a me slave to the sin of things
i know i know its the devil me
that rolls me in the night
i know i know it’s the devil in me
that makes the wrongs feel so right
the devil in me
the devil in me
the devil in me
please please
it’s the devil in me
running free
