As I get closer

As I get closer
My dreams get farther
I climb that ladder
But you kick it over
As we throw water
You give me vinegar
When I drink your medicine
It just makes me sicker

I dug a hole so deep
I'm gonna drown in my mistakes
And he can sell my soul
It ain't for you to take

I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't keep getting lower (lower and lower)
And to hell I'm getting closer (closer and closer)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)

Follow that rainbow
My luck is open
There ain't no pot of gold
Just got more tokens
I found the key to life
The lock was broken
All my accomplishments
Have been outspoken

My horrible story,
Is nearly over.
I said I'm sorry,
But I was sober.
I'll take some medicine,
I'm already full of it.
Come on and pop some in,
Into my coffin.

I got the devil on my shoulder...
I got the devil on my shoulder...
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
And I just can't keep getting lower (lower and lower)
They come to take me, take me over. (over and over)
I got the devil on my shoulder (over and over)
