William Control

Why Dance With The Devil When You Have Me

Prescription pills, darvocet, oxycontin, mescaline And a whole array of synthetic medicine

Crystal glass, ketamine, heroin, cyanide dream

And a whole generation laughs

It’s not the drugs that killed your mom

It’s not the blade that raped your brother

A whole world is suffering

Can’t be the love we lost as children

Can’t be the price of a thousand prostitute graves

Nobody loves here, everybody hates

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

When the sun sets down on my heart

When the sun sets down I’m a star

Why dance with the devil when you have me?

I feel so alone in a state of depression,

At an all time low

Closed in, in deception

Where nobody would know

Lysergic acid, psychoactive, morphine, coke, sodomy

At war with society

Self-medication, codeine supply, self-mutilation

Sex taught suicide

It’s not the drug that killed my soul

Not the pain of losing blood

In a ghost town paid symphony

Can’t be the love we lost as children

Can’t be the price of fucking saving your skin

Nobody loves here, everybody hates

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

When the sun sets down on my heart

When the sun sets down I’m a star

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

I will survive

Why are you dancing with the devil?

When the sun sets down on my heart

When the sun sets down I’m a star

Why dance with the devil when you have me?

My mind is cracked

My mind is trapped

My spine is tapped

A little bit of lean

Feels like I'm on cyanide, methamphetamines

Burned, churned

Nightmares, dreams

Heaven, hell

Help me, please

Screams, yells

Yearning, laughing

Anything could happen

I feel so trapped in

Nobody loves me, everybody hates

Suicidal mind stays slipping on a plate

Poison in my veins

Nobody cares if I live, if I die

No reason to be here

Ease the pain, vicodin to settle down

Oughta be going crazy

I got to settle in

I feel a little hazy

A little heroin, I close my eyes

Never to awake again
