Wake Up The Devil Lyrics by Ben Barnes

2012

[Verse 1]
I was walking in the sun on a Tuesday morning
When the thunder struck there wasn't a cloud in the sky
I woke up this morning without a memory
That only made the pain more real (More real)
And the past six months have changed me
I don't even feel like a man
Walk around all day just hidin', hurtin'
But the thoughts of her
Just won't let me go (No, they won't let me go)

[Chorus]
Well, I am going down to hell
Yeah, Imma wake up the devil
Tell him who I am and why I'm here
Maybe the fires of eternal damnation
Will help take away all of my tears
No, it won't let me go

[Verse 2]
Thunder rode on that Tuesday morning
All I could think about was hail coming down
So, I'd rather be in hell, than I would right here
Wasting my time, thinking about you
Yeah, and if whiskey don't kill me then her memory will
This one's a red stone upon my mind
I guess old George's been right where I'm at
Lay her right down, hungover

[Chorus]
I'm going down to hell
Yeah, Imma wake up the devil
Tell him who I am and why I'm here
Maybe the fires of eternal damnation
Help take away all of my tears
No they won't let me go
Yeah
