Lyrics

[Intro]
There's a devil on my back
[Verse 1]
They say the devil's on your shoulder but I swear he's in my bed
No way I'm ever getting better with it spinning in my head
He don't care if you want it
He don't care where you've been
A fucking cycle that goes round and round and around and around again
[PreChorus]
It's a cry out for help to you and nobody else
You can lie and you can tell that I am doomed and I don't know myself
[PreChorus]
Love me if you want
I know that I'm wrong
Try and change me
Blame me if you want
For anything at all
I threw it all away
[Chorus]
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my back
[Chorus]
Devil on my back
[Verse 2]
You can run but it's useless
You can hide till you let it in
You can tie your own noose, man
Over and over again
[PreChorus]
It's a cry out for help to you and nobody else
You can lie and you can tell that I am doomed and I don't know myself
[PreChorus]
Love me if you want
I know that I'm wrong
Try and change me
Blame me if you want
For anything at all
I threw it all away
[Chorus]
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
[Chorus]
There's a devil on my back
[Bridge]
Like a child in the darkness
I was begging to see
Do you care that I'm desperate?
Down on my knees
No love, no hope, no peace
No love, no hope, no peace
[Bridge]
Like a fear that you can't shake
Nightmare coming true
No rest for the lonely
I swear there's proof
[Bridge]
No love, no hope, no peace
No love, no hope, no peace
No love, no hope, no peace
I threw it all away
No love, no hope, no peace
I threw it all away
No love, no hope, no peace
I threw it all away
No love, no hope, no peace
I threw it all away
[Chorus]
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my
There's a devil on my back
