Devil Lyrics by SALEMMOON

abandonment issues

2017

Can’t run my mouth, can’t shoot my gun
Pain isn’t worth it, you’re not having fun
You won’t hold my hand, my toes in the sand
I’m complicated, you don’t understand

But it’s difficult to leave
When you’ve got my words stuck between your teeth
And I knew you were afraid
When I discovered you loved me in vain

I’m better off alone (you won’t breathe my air)
I’m better off alone (you won’t use my name)
I’m better off alone (want to see you hurt)
I’m better off alone (want to see you break)

And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me
And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me

Can’t close my eyes, can’t shut my mouth
Your hurricane hits me and it ends the drought
But my fiery soul, embers in your heart
I’ve got you in my palm, now you’re not so smart

But it’s difficult to leave
When you’ve got my words stuck between your teeth
And I knew you were afraid
When I discovered you loved me in vain

I’m better off alone (you won’t breathe my air)
I’m better off alone (you won’t use my name)
I’m better off alone (want to see you hurt)
I’m better off alone (want to see you break)

And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me
And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me

Don't run around
Don't touch me now
Don't turn around
No, no, no, no, no
Don't run around
Don't touch me now
Don't turn around
No, no, no, no, no, no

I’m better off alone (you won’t breathe my air)
I’m better off alone (you won’t use my name)
I’m better off alone (want to see you hurt)
I’m better off alone (want to see you break)

And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me
And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me

And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me
And it’s hard for me to see
Little did I know the devil’s sleeping beside me
