Devil Wouldn't Recognize You

As quiet as it is tonight you almost think you were safe.
Your eyes are full of surprises, they cannot predict my fate.
Waiting underneath the stars, there's something you should know,
The angels they surround my heart telling me to let you go.

I barely couldn't,

I barely couldn't recognize.
But I played right into it,
Who am I to criticize?
Somehow I'll get through it
And you won't even realize
Falling through your own disguise

It's like over and over,
You're pushing me right down to the floor,
I should just walk away.
Over and over,
I keep on coming back for more,
I play into your fantasy.
Now that it's over,
You can lie to me right through your smile,
I see behind your eyes.
Now I'm sober,
No more intoxicating my mind.

Even the devil wouldn't recognize you, but I do.
Even the devil wouldn't recognize you, but I do.

You almost fooled yourself this time, let all the saints be praised.
You hide your sadness behind your smile and you keep your lost heart braced.
The steps that edge along the ledge is much higher than it seems.
But I've been on that ledge before, you can't hide yourself from me.

It's like over and over,
You're pushing me right down to the floor,
I should just walk away.
Over and over,
I keep on coming back for more,
I play into your fantasy.
Now that it's over,
You can lie to me right through your smile,
I see behind your eyes.
Now I'm sober,
No more intoxicating my mind.

Even the devil wouldn't recognize you, but I do.
Even the devil wouldn't recognize you, but I do.
