The Devil's Own lyrics

The Devil's own

Why!?

[Chorus:]

Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

No matter what I've done, you've always criticized me

Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

When it's said and done, will you remember...

[V1:]

Slap on the wrist, smack in the face

The family tree, gave me a name and nothing more

Neglected seed, why!?

[Pre-chorus:]

It's because of you I'm broken

It's because of you I'm dead inside

I never asked to be here

It's because of you I'm godforsaken

I never wanted this

It's because of you I'm dead inside

[Chorus:]

Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

No matter what I've done, you've always criticized me

What did I do wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

When it's said and done, will you remember me?

[V2:]

A happy home, a fairy tale, a broken dream

Gave me a life, then turned away

Killed everything, why!?

[Pre-chorus:]

It's because of you I'm broken

It's because of you I'm dead inside

I never asked to be here

It's because of you I'm godforsaken

I never wanted this

It's because of you I'm dead inside

Fuck!

Father, bastard, I'm the Devil's very own

Mother, know not, just who I've become

Father, hate me, for being all your not

Mother's baby, I hate what I've become

I hate what I've become

I hate what I've become

[Pre-chorus:]

It's because of you I'm broken

It's because of you I'm dead inside

[Chorus:]

Where did I go wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

No matter what I've done, you've always criticized me

What did I do wrong? Who was I supposed to be?

When it's said and done, will you remember me?
