The Devil You Know

The Devil You Know
Everything is a mess
I have come to confess
Sold out all my beliefs
I'm a liar and a cheat
Searched my soul in despair
Callused heart is rubbed bare
How I wish to believe
In your innocent dreams.

Delicate love, precious and pale
Tempted and torn
Broken and failed
Don't leave me here
Don't leave me alone
I am the one
The devil you know.
I'm your man on the cross
I'm the soul you have lost
I'm the choice you regret
One you wish to forget
Lover broken and sad
Lost the dreams that you had
How I wish I could be everything that you need.
Delicate love, precious and pale
Tempted and torn
Broken and failed
Don't leave me here
Don't leave me alone
I am the one
The devil you know.
