The Devil Wears You

Weak & Used

The gravity of love disrespected you honey

The power of evol took your heart from you lovely

Just because you love somebody

Doesn’t mean you should be with that body

Their mind neglected you finely

Messed around and manipulated you

Funny

to me but you’ve got to live with it for the rest of your life now sweetie

Carry your burdens away from me please and

I told you what it’d take to be your own glee

But you’re out there messing with a lack of originality

I’ve seen it happen time and time again

You may love her but she’s more than your sin

She’s the one who makes your heaven bend

Everything you are is a game to her head

She’ll steal your soul keep it for her own

Because she is the devil

So you’ll do as your told

Almost got away

saw an angel of grace

Light that would have lead you to better days

But your mind couldn’t wonder too far

Your body may have but you wouldn’t leave her scarred

What about you though

What about you

Did you forget the things you said to me

Or was none of that true

How you shove yourself in a box to glorify her orthodox

Never opening up

Because she’d be left in distraught

I don’t know the full story

I’m just part of well, nothing

All I wanted was you to be loved for you

You got a glimpse of it and to yourself it proved it could be real

And nice

No fights

Or Falling into the devil's kryptonite

Just effortless appreciation for each other’s being

You had me believing you were going to find your true meaning

She’s made you blind she’s so god damn deceiving but you like that don’t you

All the chaos she’s been bringing

It takes your mind off of what you can’t be

Too focused on her, have to be her candy

Except you’re not the flavor she truly wants

She just likes to possess you so she can flaunt

Goes to undress you to keep you long

Boy you’re mess dude,

Weak and wronged

I have to confess my mood isn’t anger

I’m more so grieving the loss of a savior

Captured in the damaged devil's behavior

You’re a lost boy

You’ll never save her

I was looking out for you

But now you’ll die a slave to her

Pity

Pity

Pity

I thought you were strong

Pretty

Pretty

Pretty

Sure that’s not true love

I know

Because I shoved my own devil back down to where she belonged

I’m sorry for your loss

You were a good man

Just not tough enough

I get it

The pull can be rough and unplanned

Admittedly I knew you wouldn’t run

But it was nice to see the real you have some freedom

Hope she doesn’t take it all this time

Hope she understands why you did what you did

And why you did it again

Oops don’t know if that was out yet

Not that you read my outlets

anymore

She’s made you delete me again

Yes I keep score

But that doesn’t change how that week was

That doesn’t change that you even mentioned love

But oh no not the same kind

We didn’t captivate each other

But the way she does it

Well, I wish you left her for another

Someone who would treat you better

But you’ll just have to discover that you hate yourself

because you let her
