Devil Songtext
von American Theory

King of my demons
You turned home to hell
I can′t escape the shame
I still feel your pressure
I still hear your yell
I live with what you say

My god, your fists are swinging
I pray for mercy
I fear you, father

So are you proud of who you are?
You taught me love by leaving marks
I call you father but you're not
You are a child playing God
With the Devil in your heart


You passed away but
The bruises have stained
You′re gone but still remain
I'm graceless and violent
And full of your hate
Have we become the same?
My god, you haunt me from the dead

So are you proud of who you are?
You taught me love by leaving marks
I call you father but you're not
You are a child playing God
With the Devil in your heart

You built the cross and I′m wearing it
But I′m alone when I carry it
I took your abuse but in spite of it
I manned up and buried it
I manned up and buried it
Father I forsake you
Father I forsake you
Now are you proud of who you are

You taught me love by leaving marks
I call you father but you're not
You are a child playing God
With the Devil in your heart


So are you proud of who you are?
You taught me love by leaving marks
I call you father but you′re not
You are a child playing God
With the Devil in your heart
