[ WP ] You made a deal with the Devil , and now he 's come to collect .

**Devil Inside My Sleeve** 
 
 I owe the Devil. 
 Sometimes, he walks with me 
 through the smokey bar room 
 carrying my Hennessy. 
 
 He was right there beside me 
 the first night we hooked up, 
 and if my hands were everywhere, 
 it's because we had a threesome in my truck. 
 
 I tried to make him leave 
 the night we had our fight. 
 I know you think it's me 
 that blacked out both your eyes. 
 
 He's been whispering my ear 
 years and years and years. 
 I try to make him listen. 
 I try to make him leave. 
 But, when I raise my hands, 
 it's his arm inside my sleeve. 
 
 I hear the devil. 
 Sometimes, he hears my sighs. 
 He hides the words behind my teeth 
 I use to make you cry. 
 
 I'd like to be a better man, 
 but I do n't think I can. 
 The devil's been my best friend 
 since my father let him in. 
 
 He's been whispering in my ears 
 years and years and years. 
 I try to make him listen. 
 I try to make him leave. 
 But, when I raise my hand, 
 it's his arm inside my sleeve. 
 
 I never want to hurt you. 
 I wish I could n't make you cry. 
 I wish the devil would leave me 
 sometime before I die. 
 
 I wish the devil would leave me. 
 March right out my door. 
 I'm tired of bloody knuckles 
 and waking up drunk on the bathroom floor. 
 
 I'm tired of being mean. 
 I'm tired of being cruel. 
 But most of all I'm tired, 
 of being the devil's favorite tool. 
 
 He's been whispering in my ear 
 years and years and years. 
 I try to make him listen. 
 I try to make him leave. 
 But when I raise my hand, 
 it's his arm inside my sleeve. 
 
 I just wanted you to love me. 
 It's what I asked the devil for. 
 I knew there'd be a hefty price 
 for the love we had before. 
 
 I know you think it's me, 
 and I think I might be damned. 
 The devil has my soul now, 
 and he controls my loving hand. 
 
 He's been whispering in my ear 
 years and years and years. 
 I tried to make him listen. 
 Now, I try to make him bleed. 
 And If I raise my hand, 
 you should probably leave. 
 
 Go on, get the hell out of here.
