[Verse 1: Tom Niland]
Gloating around in confusion
My mind has turned off, stopped rebootin'
Since you let me fall I am lost
Tried my best, wanted you at all cost
Can't go back to the places where we met
Still got every message archived, the whole chat
When I'm sad, hope for a message of you
But I know, that dream won't ever come true
Only had ten days, dreamt for 5 of em
Wanted you to be with me, but I was too shy back then
Then it all aligned, but quickly fell apart
Blame it all on me, since I am the flawed
Praise the lord, the road always been rocky
Played the lovely, but you were an Annuaki
You a monster, spare my Amina, please
Don't got nothing else, you an unholy tease
Damn, spare my Amina, please
[Chorus: Tom Niland]
Sitting on a flight over the clouds
Sun's rising, but my mind has fallen down
Shambles on the floor, held by angels
Inner demon so old, it feels ageless
I think of you, do you think of me too
Thought you loved me, but I guess it's not true
But I guess it's not true
But I guess it's not true
Memories of you fading in my mind
You pretended, but I'm not your kind
Wanted to love, call you mine
Now I know, you got devil's shine
The Devil's Shine
The Devil's Shine
The Devil's Shine
[Verse 2: SAVE]
And I feel so far
This chick just called me and told me that mars
Is a red planet, we step on it if we really go far
This is too hard to stomach, why do I even go far
She told me she hopped on a plane to Singapore
Gonna see a guy over there, to change her world
Why I gotta be trapped in the zone, with this girl
And it's so hard, it's so so far
Taking a step towards bliss, is it a kiss you blowing or smoke from the garage
Trying to stay calm with all this shit, but you're pulling my cards
If I wake up feeling all empty, would you fill me up
Or leave me behind when it all gets too hard
When it all gets hard
When it all gets hard
[Chorus: Tom Niland]
Sitting on a flight over the clouds
Sun's rising, but my mind has fallen down
Shambles on the floor, held by angels
Inner demon so old, it feels ageless
I think of you, do you think of me too
Thought you loved me, but I guess it's not true
But I guess it's not true
But I guess it's not true
Memories of you fading in my mind
You pretended, but I'm not your kind
Wanted to love, call you mine
Now I know, you got the devil's shine
The Devil's Shine
The Devil's Shine
The Devil's Shine
