Verse 1
You don’t cry when the knife goes in
You just breathe real slow
I learned that trick from loving you
More than I should’ve known
You smile like you’re forgiven
But your hands stay clean
You let the devil say my name
Then blame it all on me
Chorus
The devil don’t knock
He walks right in
Wears your face
Calls it sin
You say I’m evil
Like you ain’t too
I learned that word
From loving you
Verse 2
I tried praying with my fists clenched
Tried drinking him away
But hell don’t need permission
It just waits
Your kiss still tastes like fire
And every lie you told
If loving you’s a mortal sin
Then bury my soul
Chorus (repeat)
The devil don’t knock
He walks right in
Wears your face
Calls it sin
You say I’m evil
Like you ain’t too
I learned that word
From loving you
Outro
If I’m evil
You made me this way
