The Devil’s Contract Lyrics by The Plot In You

Could You Watch Your Children Burn

2013

I left my stress
The need to make amends
In the corner
I torture the ones that I knew

I stayed alone
Cus I was rotting on the inside
I planned this out
So they won't think it was a suicide

You were right
You were all right
There is a god
But he isn't on my side
They will never know what went wrong
(What went wrong)
They're better off thinking I died strong

(I was sold as a slave)
(The demons dug their nails)
(And my debt's not paid)

I've given up on sleeping
I'm done repeating the same day over and over
I think I'm losing it

They were right
They were all right
There is a god
But he watches as my soul dies

(I don't need a fucking savior)

[Chorus:]
Sold my soul
Don't you believe me?
Sold my soul
They won't forget me
Sold my soul to Hell
Don't you believe me?
They think they know
But they don't know
They'll never know
Told my family and friends
Just to forget me
They think there's hope
But there's no hope
They've gotta know

I fought these thoughts
Cus I knew they were destroying me
I struck blood from an undeserving enemy

You were right
You were all right
There is a Hell
But it's waiting for the right time

They will never know what went wrong
They're better off thinking I died strong
They will claw
They will bite
They will keep me
I will cut
I will stab
Just release me

The man that you knew
Sends regards from the grave
Says he's gone but not dead
But there's no one to save
No one

I am here to do your work
So just release me

[Chorus:]
Because I sold my soul to Hell
Don't you believe me?
They think they know
But they don't know
They'll never know
Told my family and friends
Just to forget me
They think there's hope
But there's no hope
They've gotta know
There's no fucking hope
