There’s a devil living inside me
playing cards for control
well he cheats with my soul
tells me the last of my hope
hung from the end of a rope
in the form of a man
whose neck couldn’t stand
the strain of the drop
it was the devil inside
who made his heart stop
Well they’re picking up stones from the gravel
the prettiest ones go in a pile
we sit and watch our brothers go
I sat and I watched my brother go
and he was washed clean
now we can’t measure eternity
I found a mouth full of smoke
not that I found any hope
just content with the life that I chose
Say your prayers young boy
you best drink up for it’s all gone
playing cards for control
well he cheats with my soul
tells me the last of my hope
hung from the end of a rope
in the form of a man
whose neck couldn’t stand
the strain of the drop
it was the devil inside
who made his heart stop
Well they’re picking up stones from the gravel
the prettiest ones go in a pile
we sit and watch our brothers go
I sat and I watched my brother go
and he was washed clean
now we can’t measure eternity
I found a mouth full of smoke
not that I found any hope
just content with the life that I chose
Say your prayers young boy
you best drink up for it’s all gone
