Holy Water

The devil's been calling my name
Telling me drink up the pain
Holy water, holy water
Sipping the poison in vain
Controlling all the words that I say
Holy water, holy water
Waking up with a cut on my shoulder
Regretting all the stupid shit that I told her
I told myself no, I told myself so
My broken hands turn the light a bit dimmer
'Cause my eyes need to see a bit clearer
I told myself no, I told myself so
My mama told me that in the morning
It would feel like the end of my life
But I still hit the club with my stride
And with a warning, I'm still pouring
'Cause I know I may be fool of myself
But I'm addicted to the rivers of hell
The devil's been calling my name
Telling me drink up the pain
Holy water, holy water
Sipping the poison in vain
Controlling all the words that I say
Holy water, holy water
There's a hole in the back of my pocket
And there's no money left in my wallet
I told myself no, I told myself so
I think I must've gone and hit my head
I got abilities to just forget
I told myself no, I told myself so
My mama told me in the morning
It would feel like the end of my life
But I still hit the club with my stride
And with a warning, I'm still pouring
'Cause I know I may be fool of myself
But I'm addicted to the rivers of hell
The devil's been calling my name
Telling me drink up the pain
Holy water, holy water
Sipping the poison in vain
Controlling all the words that I say
Holy water, holy water
And my mind's far from the ground
'Cause I'm high up in the clouds
And the drinks are cheap
So I'm digging deep
Till I'm six feet under ground
Never learn from my mistakes
'Cause the venom in my brain
Makes my troubles fade away
The devil's been calling my name
Telling me drink up the pain
Holy water, holy water
Sipping the poison in vain
Controlling all the words that I say
Holy water, holy water
