Idle Hands Lyrics
With my idle hands
There's nothing I can do
But be the Devil's plaything, Baby
And know that I've been used
Your lips are cold, they suffer me
They drag me under, Baby
Into your suffering
Let your hands do what they will do
Stand inside, make your maker's move
And your old eyes don't look the same
They seem enervated, in denial
Cast like stones, like you've been
Rode for miles, rode for miles
My eyes have seen
They have been shown
This is an occupation
To stand alone
I suffer you
You suffer me
We are the Devil's plaything into this reckoning
Let your hands do what they will do
Stand inside; make your maker's move
But your old eyes don't look the same
They seemm enervated, in denial
Cast like stones, like you've been
Rode for miles, rode for miles
There's nothing I can do
But be the Devil's plaything, Baby
And know that I've been used
Your lips are cold, they suffer me
They drag me under, Baby
Into your suffering
Let your hands do what they will do
Stand inside, make your maker's move
And your old eyes don't look the same
They seem enervated, in denial
Cast like stones, like you've been
Rode for miles, rode for miles
They have been shown
This is an occupation
To stand alone
I suffer you
You suffer me
We are the Devil's plaything into this reckoning
Let your hands do what they will do
Stand inside; make your maker's move
But your old eyes don't look the same
They seemm enervated, in denial
Cast like stones, like you've been
Rode for miles, rode for miles

From the official website, the lyrics are:
My idle hands- There's nothing I can do But be the Devil's plaything, baby And know that I've been used
Her lips are cold They suffer me They drag me under, baby Into your suffering
Let your hands Do what they will do Stand inside Make your Maker's move And your eyes don't look the same They seem enervated, in denial Cast like stones- Like you been rode for miles
My eyes have seen They have been shown This is an Occupation To Stand alone I suffer you- You suffer me We are the Devil's plaything Into this Reckoning
I think this songs about a man who acts emotionless towards a woman who's cheated on him yet he still has feelings towards her hence having sex with her. She's plainly evil for screing around on him, that's why he's now just the Devils plaything because she's the one playing with him, both in relationship and sex.

"Your lips are cold, they suffer me They drag me under, Baby Into your suffering" Her lips make him suffer and are cold just like she is, but he kisses them despite.

"And your eyes don't look the same They seem enervated, in denial Cast like stones- Like you been rode for miles" Her eyes don't look the same, she's hungry for sex instead of love. Her eyes look up softly as if she's in denial, but he knows that she's been rode for miles (fucking a lot of guys).
"I suffer you- You suffer me" He suffers to have her, and she makes him suffer by doing these things to him.
In the end, it shows that he chose to stand alone and leave the girl that he wishes he still had. In the end, their just both the Devils play things.
