The Devil's Rejects Lyrics

I am the bad one
Distant and cruel one
I am the dream that
Keeps you running down
With distraction
Violent reaction
Scars of my actions
Watch me running out

Hell doesn't want them
Hell doesn't need them
Hell doesn't love them
The devil's rejects (2x)

Yeah I am the brain
Some say insane
Blood is the rain
That's what life's about
In the great wide
Head split and tongue tied
Watch the sun die
When you're running out

Hell doesn't want them
Hell doesn't need them
Hell doesn't love them
The devil's rejects (2x)

Yeah I am the knuckle
Bow down and buckle
Hold your breath
Your world is running down
Live for the family
Die with the family
All is the family
My gun is running out

Hell doesn't want them
Hell doesn't need them
Hell doesn't love them
This world rejects them (4x)
The devil's rejects (2x)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Pretty straight foreward. If you don't get it, you probably shouldn't be listening to this music.
