Deal With the Devil

I’m finally atoning for all of my sins

My demons are breaking out of their little metal tins

They push me up and pull me down and give me the spins

There’s no hope here yeah i’m fucked i’m pinned

I’m split in pieces

Call your medic or your doctor or your god (sweet Jesus)

There’s nothing to be done so call the morgue and barter

Look on upon the face of your brand new martyr

So I’ll leave you here with this brief benediction

I’ll deliver it through the pain and affliction

Made a deal with the devil yeah I made my exchange

He spat in my face and made sure I was shortchanged

Yeah I’m chasing the screams

Living my life while I’m bursting at the seams

Wiping the blood from my edges of my mouth

There’s no time to sulk yeah there’s no time to pout

Gotta find the solution

Cause its clear I’m stuck in some kind of fucking delusion

Or maybe its just that you’re kind of hellbent

On keeping me in some kind of perpetual torment

Gotta lead the congregation

Pushing forward with the masses and taking my station

Gotta go forward, gotta face the animosity

Doesn’t matter if I’m seen as some kind of monstrosity

So I’ll leave you here with this brief benediction

I’ll deliver it through the pain and affliction

Made a deal with the devil yeah I made my exchange

He spat in my face and made sure I was shortchanged

Yeah I’m chasing the screams

Living my life while I’m bursting at the seams

Wiping the blood from my edges of my mouth

There’s no time to sulk yeah there’s no time to pout

There’s a difference between living and surviving

There’s a difference between existing and thriving

There’s a difference between prospering and failing

There’s a difference between managing and prevailing
