Trying to find a way Getting better everyday And I got you now I'm not alone All I need in this life is one One thing to believe in I've seen many a face From young and to old I've stolen their faith and I have broken their souls Was here before Christ have forgave you your sins And paid your price and sealed your fate within Days have come to an end Today's the day that we meet again The self inflicted inebriation Guilt never lies alone I've been waiting for the chance To reunite this sick romance Poison never hurt so good! So nice of you speak of me Your closest friend and enemy! An only savior Of masochists! Well it's the dead end slave From the alter to the grave It's the last days of our lives In faith amen Time, it's been so long And now there's nothing to say I'm trying so hard to find the words to say I'm tired of being, now I'm something I'm not I can't believe and I never thought Days would come to an end But maybe some day We'll meet again If ever that day never comes It would be to soon (move along) I've been waiting for the chance To nullify this sick romance Pull the cord to detonate So sick of you Don't speak of me Don't represent the misery An only savior Of masochists! Well it's the dead end slave From the alter to the grave It's the last days of our lives Well it's the dead end slave From the alter to the grave It's the last days of our lives In faith amen Trying to find a way Getting better everyday And I got you now I'm not alone All I need in this life is one One thing to believe in Trying to find a way Getting better everyday And I got you now I'm not alone All I need in this life is one One thing to believe in

Speak of the devil. The devil appears. Waiting for some one. Been waiting for years. And it's alright now. Yeah, I'm alright now. Watching her walking. Like watching a flame. Trying to forget her. Don't mention her name. And I'm alright now. Yeah, I'm alright now. Lonely days without her. Nights that would not end. As long as I don't think about her. I can still pretend It's alright. Speak of the devil. The devil appears. Been waiting for some one. Lonely for years. But I'm alright now Yeah, I'm alright now. It's alright. It's alright. Speak of the devil.

Heaven sent an angel to me to save me from life's misery She seemed to fall right outta the sky I caught her here in my arms Well life was pretty peachy things were really keen All the sudden that ol gal got mean Her wings fell off she started turnin' red And that old broken halo fell right off of her head yeah (Chorus) Speak of the devil here she comes Yeah, she's got this poor boy on the run Oh, I swear she's got horns and a tail A pitchfork and a book of spells Speak of the devil here she comes, and here I go! Fallen angel fell from grace They kicked her out of that heavenly place She was a raisin' hell and breakin' all the rules Tellin' lies, breakin' hearts, being mean and cruel So now she's down here on earth doin' the devil's dirty work Stealin' the soul of every man she can find Sweet lips and pretty eyes oh they were a thin disguise My little angel was a devil all along oh (Repeat chorus) Here I go Tryin' to duck, tryin' to dodge, tryin' to shake her Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, I can't escape her She's everywhere I go she knows my every move Oh I know I'm bound to loose (Repeat chorus) Speak of the devil here she comes Yeah, she's got this poor boy on the run Oh, I swear she's got horns and a tail A pitchfork and a book of spells Speak of the devil here she comes, and here I go Speak of the, speak of the, speak of the devil here she comes Speak of the, speak of the, speak of the devil here she comes Speak of the, speak of the, speak of the devil here she comes Speak of the devil here she comes and here I go.

My pretty girl is sitting in her room of red My pretty girl lying on her furry bed Pretty as the moonlight I only want to treat her right My pretty girl doing something to her hair My pretty girl dressing up with special care Pretty as the moonlight I only want to treat her right My pretty girl making me feel her man My pretty girl hugging me when she can Pretty as the moonlight I only want to treat her right My pretty girl sleeping in the still of night My pretty girl glowing in the candlelight Pretty as the moonlight I only want to treat her right
