lyrics

[verse a]
I could’ve done without the devil and the albatross
Wicked ways of coming undone
The only one to hold that gun
Aim it at that albatross
Trigger finger itching to stay
Beat it down and shoot the face
Another into the ribcage
Maybe I’m the devil after all

[chorus]
Putting down that gun but the damage has already been done
And there’s no going back there
Satisfied appetites
The chaos has been exercised
And there’s no looking back at the things that I’ve done

[verse b]
The devil apropos I did not commit this wrong
Only did what had to be done
And everything come full one day
The Albatross return to me
Stalking me wherever I hide
I grab that gun and turn again
The devil with a hefty grin
Stirring up the fight in my heart

[chorus]
Putting down that gun but the damage has already been done
And there’s no going back there
Satisfied appetites
The chaos has been exercised
And there’s no looking back at the things that I’ve done

[chorus]
Putting down that gun but the damage has already been done
And there’s no going back there
Satisfied appetites
The chaos has been exercised
And there’s no looking back at the things that I’ve done
Putting down that gun but the damage has already been done
And there’s no going back there
Satisfied appetites
The chaos has been exercised
And there’s no looking back at the things that I’ve done
