Whisper in my ear
Can't you hear the angel talking?
Nah nah nah nah nah
A little louder in my ear
Can't you hear the devil talking?
Nah nah nah nah nah
It's tellin' me there's no way
I'll make it through another day
And it does no good to pray, I'll always be alone
Whether truth or whether lies
It's the loudest voice that's talking
Why?
I think I have to know
Why?
Think that might make it go away
Can no one offer any hope to me
Before I fall down a well, 'fore I fall down the well?
Is this just how life is always gonna be
With an angel on my finger and a devil on my knee?
Whisper in my ear
Can't you hear the angel talking?
Nah nah nah nah nah
A little louder in my ear
Can't you hear the devil talking?
Nah nah nah nah nah
It's tellin' me this world's a joke
Of true TV, bright lights, and smoke
And in it all, why we soak, I'm sure I'll never know
What's right here before my eyes
Only proves the devil's talking
Why?
I think I have to know
Why?
Think that might make it go away
Can no one offer any hope to me
Before I fall down a well, 'fore I fall down the well?
Is this just how life is always gonna be
With the angels holding back and the devils running free?
Ah
Oo
Can no one offer anyhope to me
Before I fall down a well, 'fore I fall down the well?
Is this just how life is always gonna be
With an angel on my finger and a devil on my knee?
Ah-ah-ah
Can no one offer anyhope to me
Before I fall down a well, 'fore I fall down the well?
Is this just how life is always gonna be
With the angels holding back and the devils running free?
