Devil's Song Songtext

von Me Like Bees

That age old dance
Tired of it but I'm sure we'll dance it again
The world is that demanding friend
So scrape the bottom of this jar and spoon yourself thin

They'll wear you out till you could give up the ghost
They'll give a nod and say "Hey, lean in real close"
They'll say
Just this once, top me off
I know that can't be all you got
Give me just a drip of your soul
They want to hit you till your mind folds

If the devil sings a song and we don't catch the Well, baby, believe me I think we're better off
Ears to hear and eyes to see, it seems we miss a lot
But baby, believe me, I think we're better off

That real cool hand
Wonder how you're always only bluffing again
Take heart in know that however you try
That one things for sure: the house takes the kit
And there's a way that may seem right to a man
But they'll...
Catch you cold, roundabout
Hit that brake, you'll come full out
All along convince, yeah, you were sold
They only want to make your mind fold

If the devil throws a ball and you dance on the coals, well
That your fault for going, you don't know where you're going
If the piper plays a tune and you just dance along, well
You don't know who you're following now

So break formation, break from the line
The dance they dance won't help you find
Any sort of help for your soul
They're only taking nibbles out of your soul

If the devil sings a song and we don't catch the Well baby, believe me, I think we're better off
Ears to hear and eyes to see it seems we miss a lot
But baby, believe me, I think we're better off

Ears to hear and eyes to see
Got ears to hear and eyes to see
But baby, believe me, I think we're better off
