Deal With the Devil
Navigating Moral Crossroads: Lizzy Borden's 'Deal With the Devil' Revelations
Lyrics
Take door no. 1 with a suicide
Choosing a path towards self-destruction.
You're going straight to hell by the devil's side, oh-no, oh-no
Facing consequences in hell, aligned with the devil.
Take door no. 2 with a prison view
Opting for a life of confinement and restrictions.
They never knew what hit 'em but we knew it was you, oh-no, oh-no
Committing actions without being detected by others.
Praying for what lies in store beyond the curtain, behind the curtain
Hoping for a positive outcome in the unknown future.
When the die is cast you can't ignore the truth
Accepting the irreversible consequences of one's choices.
You gotta deal with the devil
Confronting challenges and hardships.
Deal with the devil
Reiterating the necessity to face difficult situations.
You gotta deal with the devil
Emphasizing the inevitability of dealing with challenges.
You gotta deal with me
Asserting the need to confront the speaker.
Take door no. 3 with a fantasy
Choosing a path involving unrealistic desires.
You said she was your lover, but she never agreed, oh-no, oh-no
Claiming a relationship that the other party denies.
Take door no. 4
Leaving an option open without specific consequences.
You're a greedy whore, they pray in your temple while you worship the floor, oh-no, oh-no
Criticizing someone driven by excessive greed.
Praying for what lies in store
Reiterating the uncertainty of the future.
Beyond the curtain, behind the door
Emphasizing the hidden nature of reality.
When the lies unmasked you must endure the truth
Facing the harsh truth when deception is uncovered.
Go to heaven, go to hell, sit back, enjoy the rapture
Experiencing both positive and negative outcomes.
Go to heaven, go to hell, control to me, body and soul
Having control over others in body and soul.
Your pride is just, covet thy trust
Highlighting the importance of trust and pride.
Give into lust, anger you'll bust
Indulging in desires and dealing with resulting consequences.
Gluttony's a meal, envy you steal
Engaging in excess and stealing what belongs to others.
sloth as you will, let's make a deal
Encouraging laziness and making questionable deals.
Yeah, you know I'm on the level
Asserting honesty and fairness in dealings.
No more working with that shovel
Escaping mundane and laborious tasks.
When you're livin' in the ghetto
Surviving and making choices in challenging circumstances.
When you're shootin' high to get low
Struggling to achieve goals, even through questionable means.
