Lyrics
I met the devil
I met the devil
I kissed his cheek on my bathroom floor
And asked if he could make me small again
He said my child
He said my child
I could scrub you clean of this life
Your skin would still feel like a dirty word
I said
You were the prodigal child
You know how it feels to fall
Someone stole my pride
So they could feel ten feet tall
So give me this, give me this, give me this, give me this, give me this
I can't be here, I can't breathe here any more
He looks at me
He looks at me
And asks my dear, what makes you fear
The ache of life that lives inside your bones
I tell him no
I tell him no
I will not confess and crack open my chest
Just so you can see what makes me run
He said
I'd have to bring you deep down, deep down into the grime
It's gonna hurt down in the dirt, but smallness has a price
So give me one, give me one, give me one, give me one, give me one
Reason I should ease your ache
I tell him slow
I tell him slow
I loved someone with all I had
I loved someone with all I had
I loved someone with all I had
But they broke something in me that I can't fix
He grins at me
He grins at me
He grins at me
He grins at me
He grins at me
And says, oh, my child you must be blind
For that's the smallest one can be
