Lyrics
Why Dance With The Devil
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
(Find me some) Drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs
(Find me some) Drugs, drugs, drugs, drugs
Prescription pills, darvocet, Oxycontin, mesca-line
And a whole array of synthetic medicine
Crystal glass, Ketamine, heroin, cyanide dream
And a whole generation laughs
(Hahahahaha)
It's not the drugs that killed your mom
It's not the blade that raped your brother
A whole world is suffering (suffering)
Can't be the love we lost as children (we lost as children)
Can't be the price of a thousand prostitute graves (we lost our lives)
Nobody loves here everybody hates
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
When the sun sets down on my heart (Dance with the devil)
When the sun sets down I'm a star
Why dance with the devil, when you have me?
I feel so alone, in a state of depression, at an all-time low
Closed in deception where nobody would know
Lysergic acid, psycho active, morphine, coke, sodomy
At war with society (Charge!)
Self-medication, codeine supply, self-mutilation
Sex taught suicide
It's not the drug that killed my soul
Not the pain of losing blood
In a ghost town paid symphony
Can't be the love we lost as children (we lost as children)
Can't be the price of fucking saving your skin (we lost our lives)
Nobody loves here, everybody hates
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
When the sun sets down on my heart (dance with the devil)
When the sun sets down I'm a star (Why don't you take it out?)
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
I will survive (Why are you dancing with the devil?)
When the sun sets down on my heart (Dance with the devil)
When the sun sets down I'm a star
Why dance with the devil when you have me? (When you have me corrupt!)
Mushrooms, crack, my mind is cracked my mind is trapped, my spine is tapped
A little bit of lean
It feels like I'm on cyanide, methamphetamines
Yurn, churn nightmares, dreams
Heaven, hell, help me please
Screams, yell, yearnin laughing
Anything can happen, I feel so trapped in
Nobody loves me, everybody hates
Suicidal minds stay slipping up the plate
Poison in my veins, nobody cares
If I live, If I die no reason to be here
Tylenol so ease the pain
Vicodin to settle down
I'm going crazy I've got to settle in
I feel a little hazy, a little haroin
I close my eyes never to awake again
