I don’t believe in the devil But right now I would sell my soul for the chance of redemption For that I have sinned, more than thrice And the man staring back at me believes it’s time I paid the price Any form of recognition or instantaneous gratification is what helps me rest my head, on this cold pillow that every night I dread. Time moving slowly I can only sit and laugh, for I have confessed to my wrong doings and i am on a new path So with my head held high, I arise from cruel slumber, I roll the dice of life, I hope it’s my lucky number, alas it is not but no need to worry, oh I do hope this will end in a hurry. It’s done, it’s finished, exit stage right With all these pills I’ve consumed I won’t make it through the night, But it’s okay This is how it’s supposed to end, this next part felt like a god send, For in my final few moments I lay there and revel, as I draw my last breath I realise... I believe in the devil

Confession
I don’t believe in the devil But right now I would sell my soul for the chance of redemption For that I have sinned, more than thrice And the man staring back at me believes it’s time I paid the price Any form of recognition or instantaneous gratification is what helps me rest my head, on this cold pillow that every night I dread. Time moving slowly I can only sit and laugh, for I have confessed to my wrong doings and i am on a new path So with my head held high, I arise from cruel slumber, I roll the dice of life, I hope it’s my lucky number, alas it is not but no need to worry, oh I do hope this will end in a hurry. It’s done, it’s finished, exit stage right With all these pills I’ve consumed I won’t make it through the night, But it’s okay This is how it’s supposed to end, this next part felt like a god send, For in my final few moments I lay there and revel, as I draw my last breath I realise... I believe in the devil
