The Devil Is Me

(album: Monster - 2012)

I ran from temptation
I prayed for salvation (yeah)
I screamed out
"God save me from my own damnation!"
(Yeah, yeah)

My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood and signed it
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

The Devil is me
The Devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the Devil is me (yeah)

I lived in confusion
Choked on my pride's delusions
I sinned a thousand times
And drank the wine
While screaming out for absolution
(Yeah)

I stood unbowed but broken
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

The Devil is me
The Devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the Devil is me

Take a look at yourself and then tell me what you see

The Devil is me

My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood and signed it
I woke up in a sweat
And heard the Lord's decree

The Devil is me
The Devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the Devil is me

Yeah!
Yeah!

The Devil is me
