Well, I've heard that the devil's walking around I sold my soul way down in the dirt But stole it back and forever in debt And for a moment I don't even care Until I feel his breath at my neck And maybe even you can feel it too He's on a strike and looking at you Holding onto his words, but baby I saw an angel become the devil Still they look pretty good hand in hand Well baby, I don't need any of them Heaven nor hell Well, I've heard that the morning star of a prince Was invoked on a Monday on earth I found his business card in the mud And for a moment I don't even care Until I feel his breath at my neck And maybe even you can feel it too He's on a strike and looking at you Holding onto his words, but baby I saw an angel become the devil Still they walk pretty good hand in hand Well baby, I don't need any of them Heaven nor hell Evil came down on earth And it beholds more than you love More than you love Heaven don't fall on earth What you behold is no longer a word No longer a word Well, I've heard that the devil's walking around I sold my soul way down in the dirt But stole it back and forever in debt And for a moment I don't even care Until I feel his breath at my neck And maybe even you can feel it too He's on a strike and looking at you Holding onto his words, but baby I saw an angel become the devil Still they look pretty good hand in hand Well baby, I don't need any of them Heaven nor hell
