Devil Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sunday mornings make me nervous
They don't feel like they used to feel
My religion feels wrong, but I can't tell my mom
I'm afraid that my words would kill

I think I still believe in Jesus
He's a friend when I choose to pray
But my demons get me high, 'til I'm burning all the time
Yeah, they never wash my sins away

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Singing I-I-I
I'm singing hymns at the top of my lungs
I-I-I
I'm singing hymns at the top of my lungs

[Chorus]
I think the devil made me
Do it, do it, baby

I found myself when I lost my faith
I found myself when I lost my faith


I think the devil made me
Do it, now I'm crazy
I found myself when I lost my faith
I found myself when I lost my faith, yeah I did, yeah
I think the devil made me
Do it, now I'm crazy
I found myself when I lost my faith
I found myself when I lost my faith, yeah I did, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Don't pray for me, don't pray for me, don't
No, no, no, no
Don't pray for me
I found myself when I lost my faith

[Bridge]
I'm letting go, it's not your fault
You'll always be a work of art
I told you I'm leaving this morning
No, wait, wait, don't pick up the phone

Just let it go to message, maybe you could keep it
Yeah, tell her I'm coming home
Tell mama I'm coming home
I found myself when I lost my faith

[Chorus]
I think the devil made me
Do it, do it, baby
I found myself when I lost my faith
I found myself when I lost my faith
I think the devil made me
Do it, now I'm crazy
I found myself when I lost my faith
I found myself when I lost my faith, yeah I did, yeah

[Post-Chorus]
Don't pray for me, don't pray for me, don't
No, no, no, no
Don't pray for me
I found myself when I lost my faith

[Outro]
I'm letting go, it's not your fault
You'll always be a work of art
I told you I'm leaving this morning
No, wait, wait, don't pick up the phone

Yeah, let it go to message, maybe you could keep it
Just tell her I'm coming home
Tell mama I'm coming home
I found myself when I lost my faith

  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Tyler’s powerful solo debut ends on a rousing, uplifting note. The questions, confusion and internal turmoil all still exist – Tyler’s journey out of the Mormon faith into the unknown still isn’t over. However, in what is surely one of the catchiest chorus refrains of his career (and there have been many) Tyler states defiantly and definitively “I found myself when I lost my faith”. It’s a fascinating observation and rallying cry for those like myself who find Tyler’s music incredibly personal and moving.

Although this is the final track of the album, one can only hope that Tyler continues to share his journey of ‘life and love and excommunication’. His fans, at least those with ears to hear, are already awaiting his further light and knowledge. I for one plan to be first in line.
