Evil
Paix Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I’ve been thinking bout you and me
And I’ve got a problem with a couple of things
Maybe three
I never really like the way you push me around
Or when you say you love me but you look at the ground
You never seem to smile til you see someone else
We got some dark days behind us now
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
But I can see you’re
Hey, you know I’m seeing you for what you are
Just a devil with a beating heart
And I don’t think you wanna hear this part
But from the start
You lied to me about you every chance that you got
It led me to believe it if i liked it or not
If you wanna pull me under, we can just rot
Until the dark days are dead and gone
Until the dark days are dead and gone
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
But I can see you’re
Someone get me a crucifix
I need some kind of protection
From the devil in a dress
I need to find a crucifix
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
I can see you’re evil, evil
Always so deceitful, for real
My momma said to leave ya, leave ya
You’re only an affliction
And I’m your new obsession
But I can see you’re
I need to find a crucifix
