all our exes live in texas – the devil’s part lyrics

Loading...

[hook]
oo-ooh, ooh
oo-ooh, ooh
oo-ooh, ooh
ooh…

[verse 1]
i’m sorry, darling, but i will not let you in
i have seen this before, and i’m still recovering
but i took his trembling hands and i led them to my skin
they twisted ’round my heart to let the dark right in

so he came to me one night to tell me he is not alone
he’s carrying a girl who had left him on his own
she opened up his skin, she lives inside his heart
and he is scratching, begging, for her to depart

[chorus]
oh, my darling, you, you are not what i need
i pray to mother, my god, i’m down on my knees
please, my love, please my open heart
please take forgiveness, mother; i played the devil’s part

[verse 2]
so he shot his words like arrows but they hit me as would stone
he led me outta town to tell me i would die alone
’cause in my years of 25, i gave a fool my heart
please take forgiveness, mother; he played the devil’s part

[chorus]
oh, my darling, you, you are not what i need
i pray to mother, my god, i’m down on my knees
please, my love, please my open heart
please take forgiveness, mother; i played the devil’s part

[bridge]
the devil’s part, ha!
the devil’s part, ha!
the devil’s part, ha!
the devil’s part

the devil’s part…

[verse 3]
i could say i learnt a lesson that i won’t repeat again
with every p-ssing year, i learned to bury sin
but i’m older now and, truth be told, i’ve fallen right apart
and i’ll spend the last days burning paper through my heart

[chorus]
oh, my darling, you, you are not what i need
i pray to mother, my god, i’m down on my knees
please, my love, please my open heart
please take forgiveness, mother; i played the devil’s part
