Apple of the Devils Eye

On my 6th fifth by the fourth And of course I’m all alone The voices inside my head Keep me company since you’ve gone Some call me stoned Others say I’m high But if the bottom of the barrels good Then I guess I’ve touched the sky I keep holding on, to this guilt deep inside Every drink helps fuel the cold hard truth As the memories help me die And I guess that’s why I might Be the apple of the devils eye Bridge First it was temptation that lead me down that road Next thing I know I’m driving there solely on my own What’s right is right,yet every night, I know I’m in the wrong Down and out on empty with a soul that has no home Do you think this needs another verse? I keep holding on, to this guilt deep inside Every drink fuels the cold hard truth As the memories help me die And I guess that’s why I might Be the apple of the devils eye... Yes I know I’ll lose this fight I see no end in sight I’m the apple of the devils eye.... I’m the apple of the devils eye
