Better than the devil

With your wink, all can go away
from your eye to my heart, bam
silence becomes darkness
I become my worst enemy
The gods want me to learn
where my soul should NOT go
I look at you and need to be better
Better than the devil
Take me from my past and into your mess
I know what I know, but I'll lose my sense
the moment I wake up and see you there
I need to be better, I need to care
        Better than the devil, better than bad
        I want to be good like him, like her
        Gonna be good once and for all
        Gonna be better, better than the devil.
I'm here for a reason I think
I might have something good to say
but I am bad for my choices
Bad when evil steals my voice
bad to act like this
bad to not be better than this
bad to stay like this
I need to better, better than the devil
        Better than the devil, better than bad
        I want to be good like him, like her
        Gonna be good once and for all
        Gonna be better, better than the devil.
Once you talk to the devil, engage his temptations
He'll keep coming back, teasing you with happiness
He'll say he loves you but when he goes away
He takes everything back that he promised would stay
Bam, he's back and takes your hand
It feels so good and familiar, so you can't let go
and before you know
your walking down again with your friend
but everyone who care's for you is up there
and bam, bam, bam, bam
your alone on the bottom, no one around
and you've fallen down, down, down, down
I'm gonna be better, better than the devil
Gonna be better, better than the devil.
