Lyrics Devil - Relic Hearts

V1
Just like a box you hold
You know you want it to grow
Treat it like it's a gift
The kind that grips at your throat
Ornamental control
Wrapped up in smoke
Want to let it all in
But you're afraid that you'll choke

Another time
Another place
How do you hide
A past you can't escape
And all the while
Just saving face
To find a way
Into your saving grace
V2
A nightmarish place
How could I have foreseen
The angel in you
Brings out the devil in me.
A catch-22
How could I become clean
I extorted you
The way you exorcised me

I'm under the weight
Of my regrets
And that's the one place
I wish that I could forget
