Devil That I Know

from Devil That I Know by Stone & Snow

lyrics

Now it comes down to this, your back’s against the wall
Why would you take such a risk, aren’t you afraid you might fall?
Don’t be so hard on yourself, it’s not so easily done
I’ll keep you here with me, I’ll keep you under my thumb

Let me go
I won’t stay here with you
I need something else, something true
Like poison, I’ll draw you from the wound
you’re a curse I must lift, I have been such a fool
And you say we’re the same, but…

You don’t even know my mind
You never took the time
I’m better off without you anyway
What we had was just a dream
A hoax, a made-up scheme
It wasn’t you and me anyway
And if it was..

Black and white, I could pick a side
And it would be easy, and I would be alright
When I don’t know which way to go
I’m gonna lean, I’m gonna lean
Toward the devil that I know

The devil I know has always kept me
The devil I know, he won’t let me, he won’t let me go

And now I’ve had enough
I think I’ll call this bluff,
and I will take what’s left and start again
And I won’t be afraid of this life
I won’t close my eyes this time
And I won’t make the same mistakes
and if it was…

Black and white, I could pick a side
And it would be easy, and I would be alright
When I don’t know which way to go
I’m gonna lean, I’m gonna lean
I’m gonna lean, I’m gonna lean
Toward the devil that I know
