[Verse 1: David Gunn] So I'm sitting here with ghosts again some are women mostly men Telling me of times they have had And I'm fantasizing about a hole in the ground How and where I'm gonna lay myself down and still die at 27 like we planned Then she saw the look in my eyes And began to sing a song I won't describe "In another life we'll be king and queen you and I" Then she told me devil don't cry [Chorus] Devil don't cry I know things get tough and sometimes you wanna die But “God needs an enemy and I need a guy” And she told me devil don't cry At least not tonight [Verse 2: David Gunn] And I'm sitting alone again All my friends are with their friends Thinking of times we have had And I'm fantasizing about a hole in the ground How and where I'm gonna lay myself down and I find a knife in my hand Then she saw the look in my eyes And began to sing a song I won't describe "In another life we'll be king and queen you and I" Then she told me devil don't cry [Chorus] x2 [Bridge] Tonight let's pretend I'm a man And you're a woman and we're human just bones and this skin And I'll pretend that your touch makes everything right If you pretend you're not nervous that I've taken lives... [Chorus]
