Devil's Tool
04:51

If I were to fashion from the branch of a tree
a weapon that God never gave to me
would it mean that I had turned from the path
laid out for me?
Everything is wasted, everything is poor,
that’s what God would give to me,
ravaged by fire, burnt by war.
This is a gift, suddenly I see.
Suddenly I believe.
Once burned, once forgotten,
forgive and forget,
what is this you speak of?
Filthy pure – I’ll suppress!
I find it hard to believe in Him,
I find it hard to find the words,
I’ll let this fire do the talking,
watch its blood red churn,
cos I’m the spawn of the demon.
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool and He’s coming for you, ah…
Falling for the Devil, a gift, an ill, a curse.
He’ll make you want it all then deny to quench your thirst.
I can’t remember he’s a demon; I can’t remember love or worse.
He’s fond of deliverance – of evil, twisted birth –
but don’t worry, darling, he has not forgotten you.
You’ll love how he makes you feel his hurt, yeah!
Once burned, once forgotten,
forgive and forget,
what is this you speak of?
Filthy pure – I’ll suppress!
I find it hard to believe in Him,
I find it hard to find the words,
I’ll let this fire do the talking,
watch its blood red churn,
cos I’m the spawn of the demon.
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool and He’s coming for you, ah…
And in this wasteland
you’ll see it in the dirt and sand.
You’ll feel His presence.
You’ll feel sustenance form at your lips.
Then you’ll be His…
you’ll be a Devil’s Tool.
Once burned, once forgotten,
forgive and forget,
what is this you speak of?
Filthy pure – I’ll suppress!
I find it hard to believe in Him,
I find it hard to find the words,
I’ll let this fire do the talking,
watch its blood red churn,
cos I’m the spawn of the demon.
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool.
I am the Devil’s Tool-ah! Ooh-ah! Ooh!
I am the Devil’s Tool…
cos He’s coming for you.

Commonplace
03:37
|

Walking by, cold look in the eye (Ah...)
Razor fleets high up in the sky (Ah...)
Holding up a light for the world (Ah...)
Warm the hands of the boys and girls (Ah...)
Tell me about the birds and the bees (doo-doo-doo...)
But maybe leave out all the bits that offend me.
I did much wrong but I already told you (doo-doo-doo...)
Believe what I did without any dues.
How do you do now, honey?
I never realised how sweet the bitter sting of life can be
for someone like me
And I know...
I couldn't read the signs when I thought it all seemed so sublime.
Well, I said, "Hey, darling, how you doing today?"
You said, "Fine, now can you go away?"
Heartache I can take.
Did the world ever seem more out of place
than the times you feel such happiness?
I know it's a feeling, one hell of a feeling.
Take it from the top and roll it away -
what did you want to do today?
Commonplace is not your name.
In fact, it's more've a kind of varied place,
so yeah, I hope you know it.
Saw each other yesterday but you didn't show it, uh-huh.
Oh, yeah!
You were looking great, that makes me feel great, yeah.
Blood boils while the day goes by (Ah...)
Time and again, it ain't no surprise.
Your soul, it runs into the dry lands (doo-doo-doo...)
But don't worry, I'm here for you, my friends.
How'd you feel now, honey?
I always realise how poignant and timeless friends can be
for someone like me.
I dunno...
I couldn't read the signs when I thought it all seemed so sublime.
Well, I said, "Hey, darling, how you doing today?"
You said, "Fine, now can you go away?"
Heartache I can take.
Did the world ever seem more out of place
than the times you feel such happiness?
I know it's a feeling, one hell of a feeling.
Take it from the top and roll it away -
what did you want to do today?
Well, Commonplace is not your name.
In fact, it's more've a kind of varied place,
so yeah, I hope you know it.
Saw each other yesterday but you didn't show it, uh-huh.
Oh, yeah!
You were looking great, that makes me feel great, yeah.

Talk About Tonight
05:38
|

I don’t even know what I cannot know.
What is there to show you
when there’s nothing more to
talk about tonight?
If I can behold,
when I am retold,
every single wordflow
flying like a stern crow
from your liquid mind
would it be unkind?
Cos I don’t even know.
It feels like a blow.
Do you feel my love right?
Is it even in sight?
Let’s talk about tonight.
Ah-oh...
Oh-oh-ooh!
Feel it in the dark.
Pain feels super stark.
I’m a superstar, yeah,
running with the wildness
ness
ness!
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah...
Lights could dance in time with you
and there is so much I’d give to
sway without a care in the world
but I know I’m in for
the time of my night
as it’s so soon now
that I’ll have to go on and on
when you won’t try.
It’s new...
or am I wrong?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah...
Drink is fizzing up,
overflows the cup.
Sticky fingers mingle.
Tongues caress; they tingle.
Thinking’s getting tough.
Was it here tonight?
Was it a delight?
Time slows down and holds me,
speeds up and cuckolds me
and handles me so rough.
This isn’t enough.
But what more can I do when I am askew?
Drinking out and forthright;
chugging down the whole night.
Come talk about tonight!
Ah-oh...
Oh-oh-ooh!
Lights could dance in time with you
and there is so much I’d give to
sway without a care in the world
but I know I’m in for
the time of my night
as it’s so soon now
that I’ll have to go on and on
when you won’t try.
Is it true?
It's new...
or am I wrong?
BRIDGE

I am gone.
Yeah, yeah...
