Devil Made Me Do It
Devil Made Me Do It
I'm out here on my own
I am not looking for a perfect day
just tired of never feeling at home
I'm hiding from the morning
Inside the terror of my nights
You left without a warning
You left me here behind
I'm hiding from the moment
That's never far behind
Hiding from the moment of suicide.....
I run away
but can't turn the page
I knew it all along
You'll never try to change
I ran so far away
I thought I found the real thing
but it's just fool's gold
so now I am drowning
Unpacking all my dreams
Funny how we hurry
To hold the hands of time
Funny how we worry
We can't control the outcome
hands on the trigger of the gun
my body goes numb
I run away from
but can't turn the page
I knew it all along
inside my rage
no more, no more
the trigger is pulled
you can fight over my blood now
my fighting is through....
