"Devil" lyrics

"Devil"

Grow up sometime
You turned into a monster but you're in disguise
Who would've thought a beautiful smile would have an evil side
I'm stepping back, looking you down
Can't believe my eyes
I shoulda known this the whole time

You belong to the devil
You would fit in so perfectly
From your head all the way to your feet
Yeah the devil is all that you need
Not me
So don't try to come for me
I know better now
And you don't even have to make a sound
You need the devil nobody else

For the longest time I didn't have a clue
I knelt in front of you, you told me what to do
Walking away didn't help
I am scared of myself
You threatened my health
You are cold, let it melt
Let it burn to the ground like you did to me
Said I'd get you back eventually, on another week
Now it's Monday and I'm up to speed
Said you'd go and hurt my family
What
You're never getting close to them
You call me weak but I am strong enough to hold up a fight if they are in need
If I'm defending something that really matters to me
Know you would fight anybody, you wanna cause a scene
Cause you need that attention to fill your hole that's empty when you met me

You acted strong but you're really weak
I can see through you can't lie to me
Grow up sometime
You turned into a monster but you're in disguise
Who would've thought a beautiful smile would have an evil side
I'm stepping back, looking you down
Can't believe my eyes
I shoulda known this the whole time

You belong to the devil
You would fit in so perfectly
From your head all the way to your feet
Yeah the devil is all that you need
Not me
So don't try to come for me
I know better now
And you don't even have to make a sound
You need the devil nobody else

You show up to my house as if I'd let you in
I crossed that path before, I won't go there again
You stand there for a while, expect to be my friend
After everything you did, you crazy in the head?
You think I'd fall apart the second you walk out the door but now you're in my front yard
I won't let you in anymore
And I've been through I've been through things and I've learned I'm done with losing
You me outside
Wanna talk for a sec?
Wanna give you a chance what's up you said
I'm really sorry I've been feeling real stressed
I know I probably don't deserve you
I really hope that you don't love me less
You know I never meant to hurt you
Never meant to hurt me heard that one too many times
Thank you but I'm fine

Grow up sometime
You turned into a monster but you're in disguise
Who would've thought a beautiful smile would have an evil side
I'm stepping back, looking you down
Can't believe my eyes
I shoulda known this the whole time
You belong to the devil
You would fit in so perfectly
From your head all the way to your feet
Yeah the devil is all that you need
Not me
So don't try to come for me
I know better now
And you don't even have to make a sound
You need the devil nobody else
