Lyrics

What amazes me
There is always someone
Trying' to build you up
Just to shoot you down
It Feels like walking in circles
walking in circles...
I would hitch a ride
But no one's ever going my way
I'm still on the inside
Gazing through my skin
Gazing through my skin
 
Sweet Emily
Emily
Won't you let me in
Won't you let me in
What amazes me
There is always someone
Somewhere
And one man's windfall
Is another's calamity
Sweet Emily
Emily
Won't you let me in
Won't you let me in
The Devil Within Me
A night out on the town
Feel like walking down
This restless avenue
Littered with love letters
Disconnected numbers
Old addresses too
It's an endless boulevard
Won't have to try so hard
'Cause all I want i see
Must be the devil within me
Always has his way
Must be the devil within me
Guess he's here to stay
Thought I was in trouble
Thought I was seeing double
'Didn't know what to do
I crave lace and satisfaction
And angel adoration,can't take my eyes of you
Thank god I wear a disguise
Won't come as any surprise
he don't take no I.O.U.
Must be the devil within me
Always has his way
Must be the devil within me
Always gets his pay
Must be the devil within me
'Guess he's here to stay
Thank god I wear a disguise
Won't come as any surprise
he don't take no I.O.U.
Must be the devil within me
Always has his way
Must be the devil within me
Always gets his pay
Must be the devil within me
'Guess he's here to stay
Always has his way
Always gets his pay
'Cause he's in me
Guess he's here to stay
