Devil in Disguise

Never understood this girl
She could have had the whole world
But instead
She got too lost in her head

Knowing that she had that choice
To make a difference, use her voice
It's sad
She left it all unsaid

But you know I cry
It wasn't her time
All those crude scars on her thigh
Just make me ask why

She's a devil in disguise
Hides behind her angel eyes
A ruthless killer
Terminator of emotion she feels inside

A devil in disguise
Her soul fire masked as ice
She loves deeper
Cares forever
Then commits suicide
She's a devil

Had both a patient mother and a father
Friends that loved her like no other
That she was too blind to see

Idealized her life as lame and boring
To preserve the persona she felt warring with her psyche
Victory didn't seem likely

But you know I cry
It wasn't her time
All those crude scars on her thigh
Just make me ask why

You know I cry
It wasn't her time
All those crude scars on her thigh
Just make me ask why

She's a devil in disguise
Hides behind her angel eyes
A ruthless killer
Terminator of emotion she feels inside

A devil in disguise
Her soul fire masked as ice
She loves deeper
Cares forever
Then commits suicide
She's a devil in disguise
A devil in disguise
A devil in disguise

She's staring into her hands
Doesn't quite understand
How somebody, a nobody, came to feel
The way she does
And if she'll heal

She's a devil in disguise
Hides behind her angel eyes
A ruthless killer
Terminator of emotion she feels inside

A devil in disguise
Hides behind her angel eyes
Then commits suicide

She's a devil in disguise
A devil in disguise
A devil

She's a devil in disguise
A devil in disguise
Oh no, no, no
A devil
She's a devil
A devil in disguise

She had everything right there in front of her
She chose not to see it
She made decisions that taunted her
But her fault she wouldn't admit
She became her fears
Became what she thought she had lost
She became a devil
A devil in disguise

Don't let the enemy see you cry
Know it's hard under the bleeding sky
Trust me there's hope found in strength

And don't let the enemy see you scared
Times are dark and war's been declared
Let such fear become courage

Oh and I know you see their faces
Your loved ones and their lost graces
They're fighting with you, child
Their souls waiting to be found in the wild

I can't imagine the pain of a wife
Praying to save her husband's life
While holding her baby close to her chest
It falling asleep to the sound of unrest

Hold tight it'll reach out
A man waving a white flag will shout
Silence at last - you're free
I think they call it peace

And hold tight it'll calm down
The waves of grenades won't reach town
The tide will hold back, you'll see
The whole world's listening to your pleas

Hold tight it'll reach out
A man waving a white flag will shout
Silence at last - you're free
I think they call it peace

I think they call it peace

Hmmm hm hmm
Hmm hm hm
Hm hmm
