Angels & Devils lyrics

I guess the lies called your name again
The black you keep inside
Reared its ugly head again
I wash my hands this time

If I never see your face again
Hope it eats you up inside
If I never feel this place again
At least I'll feel my pride, oh

Apologies only now condemn
Honesty slips by
Bitter now and you were bitter then
Darkness is your guide

If I never see your face again

For this life
I think she knows
There's nothing left to show
Lose your faith
In a world
And the seeds can't be resown
Curtains drawn
She looks behind
No magic left to find
The truth you're not supposed to know
Her eyes saw long ago

Walk the wire
We walk the wire

With all I am
I stand alone
In fields that I have grown
But if there's nothing left to hold
Let the angels take a soul

Fuck the way I feel right now
I'll never feel this anymore
Shut the feelings all right down
I'll never need them anymore
Callous now till all's sublime

Forever, is just some useless word you'd say
You threw it all away, didn't you?
I'll ever, hope you someday feel this ache
You threw it all away, didn't you?

Kill the pain away right now
I'll never feel it anymore

Yeah!

I know
How you're always putting down all your friends
I know
How you think your righteousness will make amends
I know
How that little short skirt always gets you in
I know
How you hold me down just hoping I'll say when

And I know you want to own my soul, yeah, yeah

I don't know why you
Think that you can stand there on your own
I don't know why you
Always find the time to bitch and moan

With her there comes a hunger
Believing any minute all could break
She's looking out for something unknown
That could never be replaced

In a world consumed by madness
A world where I can barely breathe

Forsaken beauty lies again
These empty arms embrace what's come undone
A life together torn apart by halos of the son

The loss becomes the lover
The emptiness becomes my everything

And I wanna thank you for the way you let me in
Showed me beauty's all no deeper than your skin
And any smile you give lasts only for a while
So sell your tragic somewhere else there with your gile

Don't come creeping inside my head
And don't come sneaking around my door
Don't come slipping inside my bed
And don't come sneaking around my door
Shouldn't trust myself again so

After the laughter passes by
And what remains are shadows of the truth you try to hide
And for our sins left never reconciled
The simple truth is hearts were made just to fail
No matter how we try

If I don't see you again
I only hope someday you understand
Time turns good love to goodbye
I should have told you
It's all it would ever be

And so we face the silence of another memory

So here I am with my thoughts of you
And this world I've left for me
Stoic faces when I think of you
And how I once believed
So now you call me, but you know I won't let you through
I've myself to decieve

So leave the memories alone
I don't want to see
The way it is, as to how it used to be
Leave the memories alone, don't change a thing
And I'll hold you here in my memory

(instrumental)

You know I put my faith in you
(I gave it all to you)
There's nothing left for me to prove
(There's nothing left for me)

And I won't be there when you fall
And I won't care at all
Not this time, not this time
Not this time, not this time
Where you stumble's where you fall
And I won't care at all
Not this time, not this time
Not this time, not this time

So I push myself away

Do you ever see
These shadows over me
And all the things you left that leave me hollow
Do you ever feel
In time we're forced to heal
And all the bitter pills you made me swallow

All undone
All unsung and left to fall

Every memory that I hold
Were all just scars in the making
And all the things we can't let go
Were all just scars in the making

Somewhere left behind
Is another perfect line

Say it to my face
Look me in the eyes
And say what you have to say
You know we can't erase
These words before they bind
And turn the final page

Ah, here comes alone again

Cause everything's broken
Everything's vacant
Everything's wasted time again
Sentiments, hopeless
Innocence, jaded
Everything's wasted time again

And so we leave this stage
And all our best written lines
