The devil is me

[Verse 1] I ran from temptation I prayed for salvation (yeah) I screamed at God Save me from my own damnation (yeah) My eyes were cold and blinded I held the page I could not read Drew up my blood inside him I woke up in a sweat And heard the Lord's decree [Chorus] The Devil is me[x2] I fought myself to be set free Because the Devil is me (yeah) [Verse 2] I lived in confusion Choked on my past illusions I sinned a thousand times And drank the wine While screaming out for absolution (yeah) I stood on mountain broken I woke up in a sweat And heard the Lord's decree [Chorus] Take a look at yourself and tell me what you see The Devil is me [Verse 3] My eyes were cold and blinded I held the page I could not read Drew up my blood inside him I woke up in a sweat And heard the Lord's decree Yeah! [Outro] The Devil is me
