In this evocative composition by NEEDTOBREATHE, the lyrics delve into themes of guilt, isolation, and inner turmoil. The protagonist grapples with a profound sense of unease and self-doubt, symbolized by the metaphor of "the devil's been talkin'." This phrase suggests an internal struggle with negative thoughts or temptations that exacerbate feelings of alienation. The imagery of being on a sinking island and bleeding fingers underscores a sense of entrapment and relentless effort to escape one's own psychological confines. Despite the assertion that "the truth will set you free," the narrator remains ensnared in their personal hell, highlighting the complexity of human emotions and the difficulty in overcoming internal demons. #InnerStruggle #Isolation
Devil's Been Talkin'
Lyrics
Bag of bones and blood red cheeks
Guilty from the words I speak
Say the truth will set you free
But it won't for me
Cause I'm uneasy in my skin
Hangin' on by a thread
Life it hasn't left me yet
But I won't forget
Oh, the devil's been talkin'
(Oh oh oh)
The devil's been talkin'
(Oh oh oh)
The ship is setting off to sea
But it's sailing without me
I can't help but feel I'm on
An island born to sink
Oh, the devil's been talkin'
We can't change
It's who we are
We are all alone
The devil's been talkin'
We can't change
It's who we are
We are all alone
I'm running out
Of this hole alone
These fingers bled
Down to the bone
And I can't move
This hell is cold
The chorus sings
This is home
Whoa
The devil's been talkin'
The devil's been talkin'
(Oh oh oh) Whoa
The devil's been talkin'
(Oh oh oh)
The devil is talkin'
I'm running out
Of this hole alone
These fingers bled
The devil is talkin'
I can't move
This hell is cold
The chorus sings
Bag of bones and blood red cheeks
Guilty from the words I speak
Say the truth will set you free
But it won't for me
Oh, the devil's been talkin'
