lyrics

You’ve got everything that money can buy
And you protect it all with your big white lies
You pretend to have a sympathetic ear
But what you’re counting on is everyone’s fear
But you haven’t met me
I’m the devil that you’ve been running from
No you haven’t met me
I’m the one who’s gonna make you run

Your holy words are nothing but lies
‘Cause you will never be found making a sacrifice
What’s good for you is the only thing
You ever think about even in your dreams
But you haven’t met me
I’m the devil that you’ve been running from
No you haven’t met me
I’m the one who’s gonna make you run

You might call me a bitch; that would make you a fool
And then you’d better run away with your inadequate tools
‘Cause I won’t put up with any more of your shit
And if you fuck with me, well, that’s gonna be it
Because you haven’t met me
I’m the devil that you’ve been running from
No you haven’t met me
I’m the one who’s gonna make you run

You think we’re blind, but I can see
Your magic powers don’t work on me
I’ve got my own bag of tricks
But I don’t really need them anyway, they’re just for kicks
Oh you haven’t met me
I’m the devil that you’ve been running from
No you haven’t met me
I’m the one who’s gonna make you run
But you haven’t met me
I’m the devil that you’ve been running from
No you haven’t met me
I’m the one who’s gonna make you run
