If you lean toward the devil For just a moment in time He could take more than You ever meant to give
And slowly change everything You were inside Until you can't remember Who you are any more
Swimming upstream Against the current of the world Takes its toll And you feel like giving in…
As I'm catching myself leaning, Your hands are pulling me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You'll never take the rest of me\"
And as I'm crawling through your scheming Your chains keep dragging me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You never get the best of me\"
If you end up giving A dark moment second glance It could be the one That never lets you come back
Killing what's inside softly Until your focus delays But we move in constant motion To reach another day “ But I keep hearing myself repeating, — Awaken An awakening to catch And hold on to what we search for To keep ourselves from drowning In the waves of our mistakes
As I'm catching myself leaning, Your hands are pulling me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You'll never take the rest of me\"
And as I'm crawling through your scheming Your chains keep dragging me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You never get the best of me\"
The current is dragging us under, The current is dragging us under, But we keep reaching for the surface
The night winds keep blowing us backwards, The night winds keep blowing us backwards, But we keep running to the light
And there are so many forces against us, There are so many forces against us, But we keep running to the sky
As I'm catching myself leaning, Your hands are pulling me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You'll never take the rest of me\"
And as I'm crawling through your scheming Your chains keep dragging me, But I keep hearing myself repeating, \"You never get the best of me\"
