There’s a devil on my shoulder
He speaks in my ear
I look for the angel
But he never appears

I try to brush him off
But he’s attached to my soul
He sucks out my life
And it’s taking its toll

Persuading my mind
He wants me to commit
To an unspeakable crime

He puts a gun in my hand
And assures me it’s right
We put the barrel to my head
Then we turn out the lights…
