Another Devil Dies Lyrics
Well your face still makes my day
Just like it did in the past when you turned me away
I kept coming back for more
Thats the choice i chose
You were so distant
But i stayed close
It feels like we've weathered the storm
But without having the privilage of calm
And when we sing i hear another devil dies
When that bell rings an angel get its wings
And if I pushed would you all fall down
Cos I dont need this on my back
The hatred will tear us apart
If you wont do what you did at the start
Oh no should i go or will you stay
Will find a plan of attack
Theres a price to pay for showing our reaction to all the simple things
In time you will know what i know
But for now you win
The hatred will tear us apart
Another devil will take out your heart
And when we sing i hear another devil dies
When that bell rings an angel gets it wings
And if I pushed will you all fall down
Cos I dont need this on my back
It seems like we've weathered the storm
Without having the privilage of calm
Just like it did in the past when you turned me away
I kept coming back for more
Thats the choice i chose
You were so distant
But i stayed close
But without having the privilage of calm
When that bell rings an angel get its wings
And if I pushed would you all fall down
Cos I dont need this on my back
If you wont do what you did at the start
Will find a plan of attack
Theres a price to pay for showing our reaction to all the simple things
In time you will know what i know
But for now you win
Another devil will take out your heart
When that bell rings an angel gets it wings
And if I pushed will you all fall down
Cos I dont need this on my back
Without having the privilage of calm

"Should I go, or will you stay?" Doesn't everyone wish someone would say this to them? In other words, "I'm going to stick around no matter what; you can't get rid of me; either you stay right here, or I go wherever you go." For whatever reason (could it be love?), he stays close even as he's being pushed away. Love the ceaseless optimism of Badly Drawn Boy.
To me, this song is about an ex who you should, but can't forget about. Someone who you really tried to make it work with, but in the end it just didn't, and you're both still upset about it and you don't know who to blame.
i love this song, especially the first line when everyone's like talking then he comes in and they all cheer... i think it kind of sounds more optimistic than the lyrics suggest it is tho: It seems like we've weathered the storm Without having the privilage of calm good song tho.
