Lyrics
I've got a lot to lose if I follow you home
We've got to pick and choose the forks in the road
The angel on my shoulder tells me which way to go
One thing I know is true, you've got the devil in you
When you walked up to me I could see in your eyes
The wolf hiding underneath, the sheep was outside
The angel on my shoulder tells me truth from the lies
One thing I know is true, you've got the devil in you
Everyone testifies when faith is undone
Dodging a bullet from the barrel of a gun
The angel on my shoulder tells me when I should run
One thing I know is true, you've got the devil in you
The apple is on the tree, temptation grabs hold
You slithered up to me with your silver and gold
The angel on my shoulder tells me I'm in control
One thing I know is true, you've got the devil in you
