lyrics

Well you look just like an angel
You sound so bright and true
You seem so sweet coming down my street, but the devil is an angel, too
Yeah the devil is an angel, too

Somehow you seem familiar
Haven’t I seen you before
Got a different name, but is it the same old heartache comin’ round my door

You got one hand on my shoulder
You keep one behind your back
I’m gonna need some identification, baby, before I let you unpack

You look at me so tender
But I wonder if there lies
Something dark and sinister behind those innocent eyes

Well you coo just like a baby
Make me wanna let you in
You seem sincere, but if I trust you, dear, will I ever see my soul again

You sound just like a preacher
You stand upright and tall
But I wanna know, honey, after the show, do you have any love at all

I don’t mean to doubt
Your sincere intent
But underneath there’s a look about something mean and malevolent

You look just like an angel
You sound so bright and true
You seem so sweet coming down my street, but the devil is an angel, too
Yeah the devil is an angel, too

The devil is an angel too, that’s right
The devil is an angel too

1st time i heard DeathWish, i turned it off. felt rushed, not the Isbell i've come to admire. really grab'd me when i took time to listen on the 2nd try. the writing on these songs stopped me in my tracks more than once. raw talent with just enough polish in the delivery. thankyou Jason + 400 for another keeper swirlingmadness

A rare combination of amazing songs, artists, artistry, and a fantastic cause. The engineering alone is worth a headphones listen. Phillip Hunter
