As I get closer, my dreams get farther
|
I climb that ladder, but you kick it over
|
Thirsty for water, you give me vinegar
|
When I drink your medicine, it just makes me sicker
|
|
I dug a hole so deep
|
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
|
can't even sell my soul
|
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take
|
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
|
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
|
Follow the rainbow, my lucky omen
|
There ain't no pot of gold, just copper tokens
|
I found the key to life, the lock was broken
|
All my accomplishments, are best left unspoken
|
|
I dug a hole so deep
|
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
|
can't even sell my soul
|
'Cause it ain't worth shit to take
|
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
|
The hounds of hell are getting closer (closer and closer)
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
|
My horror story is nearly over
|
I said I'm sorry, but I was sober
|
I beg for mercy from my infernal friend
|
The one that drops the nails into my coffin
|
|
I got the devil on my shoulder
|
I got the devil on my shoulder
|
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
And I just can't sink any lower (lower and lower)
|
They come to take me, take me over (closer and closer)
|
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
|
