Speak of the Devil Lyrics

This is my vengeance for all the wrongs you've formed against us.

You always get me wrong.

My whole existence revolves around the progress that we've made, and I'll never be walked on again.

Over the edge of the rooftop thinking nobody will ever know. I know you want to be the one to see the distance from the road. X2

The road

This is our triumph over all the forms of filth you've spread. We'll never let this go. Right from the very start I knew this day would come. Tonight's the night we silence you, there's nowhere left to run.

Over the edge of the rooftop thinking nobody will ever know. I know you want to be the one to see the distance from the road. X2

Let this be your reminder, I'm everything that you wanted to be.

Hope for the best but it's over, and you thought you were better than me.
Over the edge of the rooftop thinking nobody will ever know. I know you want to be the one to see the distance from the road. X2

The Plot to Bomb the Panhandle

I'VE LEARNED TO LET GO!
COME ON!

Here's a middle finger comin' straight from oca-la
I appreciate your judgment it's proved that I can't trust a word you say
Those must be some pair of binoculars that you see every move I make, so I'll never be a liar, but you'll always be two-faced

You'll get what's comin' to you
You're blinded by your instincts
I'm not your fucking game
I'm not so easily beat

I'm looking down at this mess that you've made, and I can't believe that I stayed so unhappy for so long
Where did I go wrong?
I've got to get out of this, my hand is on the handle, and we're leaving everything behind
Goodbye for a lifetime

I'LL RIP THAT SCANDALOUS BITCH IN TWO!
WE'LL BRING THE NOISE

Try to pretend that I never even know your name, cause everything you are disgusts me
Too bad I can't turn back time so I wouldn't be here
Oh what I'd give for you to disappear
So tell me girly, how's your edge?

You've got nothing better to do
I know why you can't see straight
I thought you were better than this
but you're just like everyone else

I'm looking down at this mess that you've made, and I can't believe that I stayed so unhappy for so long
Where did I go wrong?
I've got to get out of this, my hand is on the handle, and we're leaving everything behind
Goodbye for a lifetime

I'll make my stand right here with my friends

GET LOW

Now I know who my friends are
I'm never coming home

"This is my vengeance for all the wrongs you've formed against us. You always get me wrong. My whole existence revolves around the progress that we've made, and I'll never be walked on again."

  • Someone was trying to get everyone to go against them. And they weren't gonna let them take advantage of them again 'cause they can stick up for themselves.

"I'm on the edge of the rooftop thinking nobody will ever know. If only you'd want to be the one to see the distance from the road."

  • He's thinking about pushing this person off of a building, it's only his imagination. [NOTE THIS]

"This is our triumph over all the forms of filth you've spread. We'll never let this go. Right from the very start I knew this day would come. Tonight's the night we silence you, there's nowhere left to run."

  • They're gonna do something about it this time. They're not gonna sit around doing nothing and let this person run their mouth.

"Let this be your reminder, I'm everything that you wanted to be. Hope for the best but it's over, and you thought you were better than me."

  • Since they were talking shit, ADTR is everything this person wanted to be. They're jealous and that's why they're talking shit, to make it seem that they're better.

"Such a pretty picture, your chalk line on the ground. I Hope you die"

  • IF he were to push that person off the building, it would've been this whole crime scene. You know, a murder in the streets? They do a chalk line on the ground of where the body laid. [REFER TO THE CHORUS]

  • Hope I helped! :]

amazing!! perfect hoplessxbliss! thanks alot

Why is the plot to bomb the panhandle lyrics on this too? lol

Cover art for Speak of the Devil lyrics by A Day to Remember

jeremy says "Tonight's the night we silence you"

he is deff talkin about the cd releasing and how they were wrong that they would make it

maybe its about their old label??

Cover art for Speak of the Devil lyrics by A Day to Remember

i Think the song is m9ore based on a relationship. The girl makes him depressed and makes things up about him to make everyone think he is such a bad guy and he can't stand it anymore and he kills the girl by pushing her off a building....i know it's a simple thought but ADTR seems like a simple band.

actually after i read kennys opinion i know the anwser now

its not about a girl

its about a old friend that makes shit up about him and the band cause the person is jealous. and in jeremys mind he wants to push the person off the building and watch him or her smash on the ground

it's "I'm on the edge of the rooftop thinking nobody will ever know, I hoped that you want to be the one to see the distance from the road" it might just be my version, though

it's about someone who keeps putting him or the band down a lot of shit talkers in OCALA apparently. saying that they would never make it, maybe?

"My whole existence revolves around the progress that we've made" suggest to me that someone is trying to diminish the progress that they've made? I dunno.

sick song though. Jeremy has amazing vocals.

Yes hopelessxbliss' info is spot on. He/she actually got it more than me XD. It's basically a big FUCK YOU to all of the people who told them wrong when they first started and since they were getting more noticed, people were talking shit about them and so on, so yeah i love this song. Definitely one of my favorites. :D
