Verse:
Finding life in a new beginning, 
Sort through the past, the world’s still spinning
Fallen angels and devils cry tears of redemption 
Kiss your last and say goodbye with just good intention

Taken one day, replaced by another
Fighting the night to feed on each other
Watch the sunrise as I ride on the flames
This whole journey’s just one big old sick game

Chorus:
I have the Hero Inside me, 
Just trying to break free
I’ve got the Devil beside me
Waiting to see
Which way I’ll push, and which way to turn
But all the good people they want me to burn

Verse:
Ask for the truth from your Speak to God, and the voices scream loud
Punching my way Fighting through to hell, But there was no way out
Which life is real and which ones the curse
I think I am making all this shit worse

Heroes have fallen and demons reborn
The fabric of love is left tattered and torn
My friends i beseech you, get out with your life
It’s fear that is coming when you turn out the light

Chorus:
I have the Hero Inside me, 
Just trying to break free
I’ve got the Devil beside me
Waiting to see
Which way I’ll push, and which way to turn
But all the good people they want me to burn

Outro:
Heroes are born, and heroes are made
I tried to keep all the darkness at bay
So watch out for me children, what I promise is true
Something on this night is coming for you, 
(And that someone is me)


The Devil Beside Me

Conflicted

Verse 1

He knows all the safest places
To read books by candlelight
Now he writes his own in secret
Waiting for the time to strike

So he pens his manifesto
And he takes it to the streets
Shouts what others only whisper
Daring to disturb the peace

Chorus

History has no cares
For all your fleeting fears
Whole worlds unravel at the seams
For revolutionary dreams

Verse 2

Well he stirs up a few riots
And he wakes the underground
As the spirit of defiance
Sweeps the country town by town

Riots turn to revolution
And the coup goes just as planned
With a newborn constitution
For a new and better land

Chorus

Verse 3

In the songs he was a hero
They would raise a glass and cheer
Now those songs have darker lyrics
Where they think his spies can?t hear

In the streets he hears them shouting
One more riot to be quelled
If he regrets only one thing
It's the he taught them too well

Chorus

Outro

He knows all the safest places
To read books by candlelight

Lyrics by: Glory2Hypnotoad

Verse 1

I can’t look up
Why can’t I meet their gaze
They’ve all come here for me
I hear them call my name

It’s all too much
The lights, the noise, this stage
Everything starts to spin
But I can’t make them wait 

Chorus

It kicks off with the sound of drums
Bass-line rumbles, distortion hums
Lost my breath at how far we’ve come
And here I am, just gazing at my shoes

Verse 2

I can’t look up
Just staring at the floor
My little private world
These shoes, this pedal-board

It’s all I need
The music’s all I feel
This moment’s all I know
And nothing else is real

Chorus

It kicks off with the sound of drums
Bass-line rumbles, distortion hums
Lost my breath at how far we’ve come
And here I am, just gazing at my shoes

Bridge

In the heat of the melody
Caught up in all the energy
In the place where I feel free
And here I am
And here I am

Chorus

It kicks off with the sound of drums
Bass-line rumbles, distortion hums
Lost my breath at how far we’ve come
And here I am, just gazing at my shoes

Outro

It comes down with a hazy chord
Bass-line rumbles, distortion roars
In the thousands they shout for more
And here I am
And Here I am
And Here I am just gazing at my shoes.

Verse 1
The beginning and the end 
All my worlds colliding 
Face the fears I’ve never known 
I’m on my own 

Footprints in the snow 
Shadowed faces watch below 
It’s a choice I have to make, I know 
So… 

Pre-chorus
Voices inside my head, said 
Choices you make set your fate  
These are the crossroads, now 
Believe me 
For belief will set you free 

Chorus
My home, my only 
All that I ever knew 
Alone, you own me 
I don’t know why 
But I’ll try for you 

Verse
On a bridge that spans the years
All my faults and failings  
Will you catch me if I fall 
I see it all 

Footprints in the sand 
As you take my trembling hand 
I am yours, this blood, this heart, this land 
And… 

Pre-chorus
Voices inside my head, said 
Choices you make set your fate 
These are the crossroads, now 
Believe me 
For belief will set you free 

Chorus 
My home, my only 
All that I ever knew 
Alone, you own me 
I don’t know why 
But I’ll try for you 

Bridge
To rise, to fall, to fight, to flame 
To right, to wrong, to speak, to blame 
To see, to know, to move, to rise 
To wish, to hope, to believe in your lies –

Chorus 
My home, my only 
All that I ever knew 
Alone, you own me 
I don’t know why 
But I’ll try for you
