The Devil's in the Details
I surrendered to the roses
And everything was sweet
I closed my eyes to the setting sun
And everything was complete
I thought I had it all worked out
But the devil's in the details
Well people talk about eternity
Like it's something they could ever comprehend
Well it's always been quite clear to me
A fascination with no end
I found bliss in a vague idea
But the devil's in the details
Well I knew which bus to catch
And I knew which train to take
No clue where I was going
But I knew there was a lot at stake
You can't just float and you can't just fly
Someone's always gonna take you for a ride
You can't just talk and you can't just sing
You can't just be anything
The devil's in the details
Eastern city Fine and fair
No-one knew me anywhere
But people get suspicious
Of a meaningless life
You wanna know why
The devil's in the details
Well I say hello and I say goodbye
And that's just fine for just a little while
I don't want to know your story
You most certainly don't need to know mine
It's alright
Let's leave the devil in the details
I knew which bus to catch
And I knew which train to take
No clue where I was going
But I knew there was a lot at stake
You can't just float and you can't just fly
Someone's always gonna take you for a ride
You can't just talk and you can't just sing
You can't just be anything
The devil's in the details
And everything was sweet
I closed my eyes to the setting sun
And everything was complete
I thought I had it all worked out
But the devil's in the details
Well people talk about eternity
Like it's something they could ever comprehend
Well it's always been quite clear to me
A fascination with no end
I found bliss in a vague idea
But the devil's in the details
Well I knew which bus to catch
And I knew which train to take
No clue where I was going
But I knew there was a lot at stake
You can't just float and you can't just fly
Someone's always gonna take you for a ride
You can't just talk and you can't just sing
You can't just be anything
The devil's in the details
Eastern city Fine and fair
No-one knew me anywhere
But people get suspicious
Of a meaningless life
You wanna know why
The devil's in the details
Well I say hello and I say goodbye
And that's just fine for just a little while
I don't want to know your story
You most certainly don't need to know mine
It's alright
Let's leave the devil in the details
I knew which bus to catch
And I knew which train to take
No clue where I was going
But I knew there was a lot at stake
You can't just float and you can't just fly
Someone's always gonna take you for a ride
You can't just talk and you can't just sing
You can't just be anything
The devil's in the details
