Devil’s Role Call
A song examining addiction.
Lyrics
VERSE
Back at the crossroad
Back against the wall
They’re all hoping here lately
This won’t be the fall
Chorus
The devil’s got yr perils & he’s keeping score
That’s your name and it’s on his role call
VERSE 2
You can’t even reach me
But I don’t even care
The rabbit in the headlights
In the fox’s lair
Oblivion is fraught with trouble
Lonely souls fall in the rubble
Breakdown
Break it before it kills you
It’s got you on a leash
You are your own bad habit
you are your own beast
VERSE 4
One hand on the throttle
Screaming down the street
One hand on the bottle
Drowning in defeat
Your beauty is yours to dispose
You can change your clothes
But you can’t rip your skin off
Breakdown
Break it before it kills you – It’s got you on a leash
You are your own bad habit – you are your own beast
Verse 3
You are aching
and your mind is shaking
There’s the sound
of your heart breaking
The devil’s got your perils and he’s keeping score
That’s your name and it’s on his role call
Breakdown
Break it before it kills you – It’s got you on a leash
You are your own bad habit – you are your own beast
