Devilish ways

Devilish ways, watches aim
Slowly replaced innocence
Was it staged taking out that age?

I'm not blaming you
But I'm not staying
Not staying true

Too young when your mother died
You did not even cry
Just wondering where she'd gone

Ever, ever since that day
You have been too afraid
To ever sleep alone

She won't let go no matter what you say or do
How'd I become everyone that once abandoned you?
And what will it take to put you at ease?

Too young when your mother died
You did not even cry
Just wondering where she'd gone

Ever, ever since that day
You have been too afraid
To ever sleep alone

Unaccountable for all that use of her
I don't have the strength to make it go away
Just want to tip you off

And saved you before this
Or am I just a cause
A trigger for the worst?

Keep you safe here tomorrow
No, I don't really want
To have to break your heart

When there something that I need
I need to tell you
If I don't come clean, I'd be leading you on

And there's something I need
I need to tell you
If I don't come clean, I'd be leading you on
