Tricky Devil Lyrics


Cold War Kids Tricky Devil


If I couldn't tell one face from another and cities all looked the same
If my memories were melted like butter and I even forgot my name
Somehow, you'd find a way to make me smile

I can try pleasing all other people, imitate the way they dress
Compliment their hair, mirror behavior, I know they're gonna be impressed
Tell me how you never betray yourself

If they made me pack up all my belongings, put 'em in an old suitcase
Push me out the door with no explanation, nowhere I can show my face
Tell me what you wouldn't do to save your life

Did you make some kind of deal with the Devil?
Are you some kind of saint?
Aren't you gonna say something bad about us?
Will you return hate with hate?

What's the furthest place that you ever traveled?
Somewhere that you had no friends
Have you ever been so lost you unraveled?
Did someone reach out their hand?

Tell me why, tell me why
You smile
You smile
You smile
Tell me why you smile
You smile
Tell me why you smile
Tell me why you smile
