Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The lives of some men
If walls could talk to spill the lies
We'd see the world through devil's eyes
[Verse 2]
I maintain an addiction
Been known to take it too high
I got an inch with a loaded hair trigger and a one way ticket to fly
[Verse 3]
When there's no writing on the wall
I see the lifeless devil start to crawl
I don't need no lessons
After all
Everybody's doing their time
[Verse 4]
Caught your eye in the corner
Don't you look at me wrong
Fucked up and thrown into the gutter
Gotta fix what don't belong
[Verse 5]
I see the writing on the wall
I see the lifeless devil start to crawl
I don't need no lessons
After all, everybody's doing their time
[Verse 6]
That's just a price to play
So tell me what you like
Got a hand on the kerosene match tonight
Right
[Verse 7]
Had enough of opinions
I got enough on my mind
Sell your soul for approval
And a dollar got a pretty little body to grind
[Verse 8]
I see your number on the wall
I see the lifeless devil start to crawl
I don't need no lessons
Watch the fall
You lost my attention
After all
Everybody's doing their time
Time
