Devil in Drag Lyrics by James LaBrie

Beautiful Shade of Grey

2022

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Don't need to taint your thoughts
Deep down you're tied in knots
Resentment simmers in you

Keep pushing what's good aside
One hell of a bumpy ride
No one you'll answer to

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Yeah, you kill me
Believe all they're telling you
Sadly, gladly
No question what's expected of you

[Chorus]
You run away from all the lies in life
You're all alone and on your own
You run away from all your lies in life
Devil in drag, you're on your own

[Verse 2]
Give you some sound advice
My words feel like ice
You're but a shell of the man I once knew

Take a good look at yourself
Forgotten book on a shelf
Is there a flame still burning in you?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah, you kill me
No question it's affecting you
Sadly, gladly
A blind man's point of view

[Chorus]
You run away from all the lies in life
You're all alone and on your own
You run away from all your lies in life
Devil in drag, you're on your own

[Bridge]
Sacrificed all you held dear
For what, a pack of lies
Trade it back but they don't hear
Be careful what you wish for in life

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
You run away from all the lies in life (All the lies in life)
You're all alone, you're on your own
You run away and still you can't decide
Devil in drag, you're on your own

[Outro]
You're led astray from all your lies in life (All your lies in life)
You feel betrayed under the knife
You run away from all your lies in life (All your lies in life)
Devil in drag, you're on your own

[Instrumental Outro]
