Crimson Telephone Lyrics by The Coathangers

The Devil You Know

2019

Crimson telephone
Just leave me alone
In my eyes, in my bones
You know what I don't
Crimson in what I see
You're becoming me
The more you see, the less you know
The more you see, the less you know
???
(We checked the money
Yeah we checked your story
Crimson says it's time you worry)
The more you see, the less you know
The more you see, the less you know
(You bathe your hands and they're full of blood
You bathe them in, now play the part, yeah)
Hide the scars
Hide the scars
Crimson on the prowl
Why you tract me now
What I love, what I need
Crimson, you follow me
What you find, you keep
I'm running, running along
But you're faster than a loaded gun
Your eye on everyone
The more you see, the less you know
The more you see, the less you know
???
(We checked the money
Yeah we checked your story
The ballroom ends with all its glory ??)
???
(You see yours in your home
You let them in, now play the part, yeah)
Hide the scars
Hide the scars
