The Devil Is Me Lyrics

I ran from temptation
I prayed for salvation, yeah
I screamed out
God save me from my own damnation

My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood and signed it
I woke up in a sweat and heard the Lord's decree

The devil is me
The devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the devil is me

I lived in confusion
Choked on my pride's delusions
I sinned a thousand times and drank the wine
While screaming for absolution

I stood unbowed but broken
I woke up in a sweat and heard the Lord's decree

The devil is me
The devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the devil is me

Take a look at yourself and then tell me what you see
The devil is me

My eyes were cold and blinded
I held the page I could not read
Drew up my blood and signed it
I woke up in a sweat and heard the Lord's decree

The devil is me
The devil is me
I fought myself to be set free
'Cause the devil is me
Yeah, yeah
The devil is me

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.
