DEVIL Lyrics

DEVIL - PHIX

...

I had nightmares that repeated where I had to shake myself awake

How can I beat all this depression that I'm left to face?

When I wake up, I can feel him standing by my side

Whispered in my ear, "You know that you're not leaving here alive"

Don't know how much I can take

If I take one more, then I gotta go

But my demons keep me awake

No matter how hard I try, they won't let me go

Sometimes I put shit in my system that I ain't supposed to have

Ain't take the whole thing but damn sure it was close to half

I tried it once before but that time I ain't closed the gap

But I talked to God and thought I was gone, so how close was that?

Since I got on, I got friends that ain't even hollered since

I laid in bed with a pistol ready to call it quits

I'm locked and loaded, I lock the door, and I'm not gonna miss

Being this lonely, it hit you up like a wall of bricks

That shit is sad, I want these feelings fucking out of me

And all I want was a hug from someone who's proud of me

This the type of shit my friends don't wanna be bothered with

So the next time I have problems, who can I call 'em with?

Don't know how much I can take

If I take one more, then I gotta go

But my demons keep me awake

No matter how hard I try, they won't let me go

I had nightmares that repeated where I had to shake myself awake

How can I beat all this depression that I'm left to face?

When I wake up, I can feel them standing by my side

Whispered in my ear, "You know that you're not leaving here alive"

The devil tried to keep me close and never let me out of sight

I tried escaping that, but I fucked up my entire life

I try to shake him off, but he's always a step ahead

He's the shadow in my dream, the voice inside my head

I feel him right over my shoulder while I write this out

If he gon' try me, he best pray to God he wipe me out

And no one's home, so I'm the one who's gotta fight this out

And we all know who's gonna win, so what you cryin' about?

I don't know how much I can take

If I take one more, then I gotta go

But my demons keep me awake

No matter how hard I try, they won't let me go

Oh, oh, oh

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

But my demons keep me awake

No matter how hard I try, they won't let me go
