Devil on My Shoulder

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 [Pre-Chorus] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] 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 got to take me take me over (Closer and closer) I got the devil on my shoulder (Over and over)
