Devil on My Shoulder

Beautiful silence
Beautiful pain
We're only human
We're meant to dream
Lost in a life full of mistakes
We do what feels right then fall with no grace

Chased by the sun
Escaping flat lines
Dreams are a curse
Wake up you're alive

Oh, slowly fading from the misery
I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see
Lady in the mirror
Oh, everyday I'm getting a bit older
And every time I break I get stronger
Every day, it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder

Beautiful silence
Beautiful pain
Beautiful people but we're all stained
Lost in a life full of mistakes
We do what feels right then we fall with no grace
I'm a sinner
I'm a tainted saint
I'm a savior
It's all the same

Chased by the sun
Escaping flat lines
Dreams are a curse
Wake up you're alive

Oh, slowly fading from the misery
I've accepted who I'm supposed to be
I've accepted who I'm supposed to see
Lady in the mirror
Oh, everyday I'm getting a bit older
And every time I break I get stronger
Every day, it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder

We're all broken, it's fate
It's the way that we're made
All the pieces are there, they just aren't in their place
So I struggle to stand but don't ask for a hand
My pride tells me no, you're better alone
I'm uncomfortably numb as I stuff what I've found
And I start to shut down, freeze in front of a crowd
It's what I don't say, I don't love, I don't hate
Closing my mouth and turning my face
But it's no way to live, to have nothing to give
Consuming the doubt, not letting them in
But I'm not here to win, to survive, but I'm already dead
So I picked up my head
I picked up my head
I picked up my head

Oh, everyday I'm getting a bit older, older, oh
Every day, it's getting a bit colder, colder, oh
Everyday I'm getting a bit older, older, oh
Every day, it's getting a bit colder
When I grow closer
To the devil on my shoulder
To the devil on my shoulder
