I’m your Devil’s Advocate!

Spending all my time, by your side

You know it drives me mad

That you can’t say what’s on your mind

But I digress

Everyday is just another challenge to get past these walls

That you’ve spread across the borders so paper thin

But i try my best to make my presence known all around you

Because every now and then those emotions you keep

Behind locked doors seep out then

I just don’t know what to do with myself

But then you keep me grounded to this plane of existence

Because in this crossroad of sentimentality

I keep finding you in my head and there’s no way to escape

Trapping ourselves in the false reality that we call love

Has me got hooked and i can’t stop, cause i’m addicted to your body

Got me caught on a line, and it’s almost impossible to get out of this stupid paradigm

You know that I can see everything that you do to me

You think I'm stupid but i know how you really feel

Eyes up, look right, suck it up, we’re out of time!

Keep it straight, don’t talk to me that way, baby!

Hold me tight don’t let me go until the end of time

I’d leave everything just to be with you!

Do you love me? I don’t know

Your mask of emotion glows

With the radiance of “I love you, baby!”

But everything that you hold, is a secret to the soul

And you know that I’m your Devil’s Advocate

Do you really know how I feel?

After all this time of playing with my heart

You can read me more than anyone

Do I even appeal?

Sometimes it’s like you can’t even see that I exist at all

Is any of this truly real?

I’m thinking with this devilish mind of mine

That maybe one day the two of us, could be with each other

This brings me back to, what we call, the real world of terror

A streaming wall of hope, draws near

Maybe one day it can reach us

But does that really matter

When you stare at me with those starstruck eyes of yours

Keeping it on replay

You and me go everyday

Maybe, this time

It feels so real you can touch it

One more time this never ending refrain comes back to reap what we really seek, something deep inside

“Maybe it’s time that I show you”

Come on, do it right, this love won’t last all night!

Keep it secret, only you can see it!

Falling into a void of love with just you and me

I’d leave everything just to be with you!

Can you love me? Now I know

That your true reflection shows

Maybe it’s time to flip the tables

With a secret that you can take to the grave

You look at me and say “are you already done?”

Look up, turn around, everything is falling down

Do you promise to be mine forever?

Hold me tight and don’t let me go until the end of time

I’d destroy everything just to see you!

Eyes up, look right, suck it up, we’re out of time!

Keep it straight, don’t talk to me that way, baby!

Hold me tight and don’t let me go until the end of time

I’d leave everything just to be with you!

Do you love me? I don’t know

Your mask of emotion glows

With the radiance of “I love you, baby!”

But everything that you hold, is a secret to the soul

And you know that I’m your Devil’s Advocate

Times up! We’re done! There’s no more time for this fun!

Make the choice, do it now!

Now’s the time to seal your vow!

Broken dreams litter the ground of this desolate world!

I’d go through all this once more, to hold you!

“Do you love me?” “Don't you know?”

Full of emotion, you glow

With the radiance of “It’s okay, baby!”

And for one last time i look into your glowing eyes

I wanna play the role of Devil’s Advocate
