Every time I pray

  It only seems like things get worse and worse

  Every time I try to hold my head high

  It only seems hopeless

  Suddenly I’m thinking about giving up

  Living in a world of fuck ups

  My money’s slim

  My face is hard

  Marching to the beat of my own drum now

  I just feel like giving it all up

  A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

  Chorus: The Devil’s got a hold of me

  I can’t say no, I can’t say no

  The pain is flowing throughout my system

  It’s the pain, It’s the pain

  The Devil’s haunting me

  He’s laughing at this catatonic state of mind

  He’s playing games with my mind

  Turning it off and turning it on again and again

  I got him crawling beneath my skin

  I got him crawling beneath my skin

  Every time I try to love

  It seems my body caves in

  My soul gets tugged out

  And everybody just walks about

  Like it’s all a game

  Every time I try to care

  It seems to all crumble

  Shifting me like grain

  I’m falling crumbling in the palm of his hand

  I’m not blessed now

  The perdition of my soul isn’t too far now

  Chorus: The Devil’s got a hold of me…

  A shard of glass

  A needle in the vein

  It’s all the same as long as I can feel the pain

  They say pain

  Makes you stronger

  They say love

  Makes you live longer

  I’m the one that they lied to

  I’m the one, I’m the one (Repeat to end)
