The Devil In Me - Augie March

作词：Glenn Richards

作曲：Glenn Richards

There must have been a light in your eyes that you didn't see the devil in me

When he was right there inside

In my low company that I never made an effort to hide or to get him behind

That the surface don't quake when you see me in the grip of the vice

That the earth doesn't shake shouldn't come as the biggest surprise

Seeing blind love loans a clever disguise

Another day in the dirt

Make you wonder will it ever come clean

Well I'm not a machine

But if we're gonna bury the hurt

Take your pick and your shovel and lean to the task sister lean

O how long will I go on about it though it profits me none

But the day that I cease from my labor then the devil has won

Until that day I won't be holding my tongue

What I wanted to say

Is if the two of us me and the devil both can live in my skin

And I can keep a close eye on him then you know that the devil won't win

As long as I keep on the light side of sin
