Rewrite of Kiss' The Devil Is Me
I ran from your temptation
I prayed to find
Some kinda salvation (Yeah)
I screamed at the love God
Still Could't seem to save me
From your romentic damnation
(Yeah)
My heart was hot
But yours was cold
Eyes blinded to the truth
By emotions so eager to lie
So ruthless
From my innocent book of love
You ripped that page
Now without memory bitterly burning
Those false letters of adoring
I just cannot read
Left me so rude for him
Made me doubt my ability as a woman
To keep a man
My man
Still wakes me up every night
In a cold sweat
My shame rised to the ulimate degree
I try so hard
To tell my
The devil was't me
Oh baby no it was't
No no
I've lived
Far too long
In a lonely confusion
Choked up by the past
Mistakes I made
Falling for a conman's illusions
I've cried a thousand times
On a thousand lonesome nights
But I won't cry anymore
Breaking my addiction
To that same ole victicrat whine
Your turn, baby
To scream
For a lover's done wrong absolution
(Oh yeah)
I will no longer
Stand on this mountain
Alone and broken
Oh no
Not one more night
Will I wake up in a cold sweat
My shame rised to the ulimate degree
When I know
Yeah, I know better
When I take a look
A look in my mirror
Baby, tell me
What do you think I see
The devil was't me
I fought for as hard as I could
Now I don't wanna fight anymore
Your turn
To take it
Cause I'm done living with the blame
The devil was't me
Oh baby, no no
It was't
Yeah!
Hell yeah, baby
The devil was never me
