Dance With The Devil Lyrics

One, two, three, four

If misery loves company then I got a full house

All my friends are goin' out while I lay on the couch

Why, why, just tell me why

When life seems so good something's lurking behind

Oh, no, skeletons in my closet

They're comin' back out to haunt me

I had a dance with the devil yesterday

In the rearview mirror I saw a face

Eyes like shadows showing my mistakes

My thoughts are a never-ending headache

And fate was knocking at my door

When it barged right in, just to take some more

I'll keep my hands up 'cause I can't fight

I wish that I could have a rewrite

First, second chances, third and fourth, I can't take it anymore

They always ask if I'm okay, I'll tell them yes anyways

Five, six, seven, eight, evil eyes are filled with hate

They surely wouldn't be there if I hadn't made any mistakes

Nine, ten, eleven, twelve, money in the wishing well

Hope things could get better, this is just my letter

Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye

I guess I didn't try enough, what happened to my life

I had a dance with the devil yesterday

In the rearview mirror I saw a face

Eyes like shadows showing my mistakes

My thoughts are a never-ending headache

And fate was knocking at my door

When it barged right in, just to take some more

I'll keep my hands up 'cause I can't fight

I wish that I could have a rewrite

I feel the waves of the ocean

Cold void and caught in emotion

This thing called life is my token

To get away from this commotion

I'm not alright, I'm not alright

But I'm okay just for tonight

Cuz nothing good happens after someone says

Look man, just suck it up, let's go party

I had a dance with the devil yesterday

In the rearview mirror I saw a face

Eyes like shadows showing my mistakes

My thoughts are a never-ending headache

And fate was knocking at my door

When it barged right in, just to take some more

I'll keep my hands up 'cause I can't fight

I wish that I could have a rewrite
