The Dark Lyrics by Evan Bartels

The Devil, God, & Me

2017

Where have all the good ones gone?
I'm bleeding out my mouth
'Cause I bit my tongue
Chewing on the words I want to say to you

Tell me where the West was won
If it ever really was
Was it worth the cost
Of what we had to do?

[Pre-Chorus:]
'Cause it ain't easy falling down
And it ain't easy getting back up
Sometimes, you gotta play your hand
You draw your cards, but you have bad luck

[Chorus:]
But if you love me like you say you do
Why'd you have to make it so damn hard?
If you love me like you say you do
Why'd you have to leave me alone in the dark?

No one asked me what I believe
'Cause it's getting hard to tell
Remember that night we sat and talked
About heaven, about hell

Remember that poor girl
Smoking them cigarettes?
I think she was high on pills
And she was taking her last breath

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus x2]
