Mephisto lyrics

[Verse 1]
One more time then I'll know
One more lie then I'll go away
Pour another drink and I'll ease myself
Into the comforts of your philosophy
Try to understand your friend in need
And I'm here to make it easier

[Verse 2]
You and I are one in the same
We're built alike in so many ways
You can't understand, you won't accept
Your secrets are all safely kept here
Inside we're so lost
I can be the one to find you
Everything that you deserve
No request will ever go unheard
You're better off without me now
But without me here you're just better off alone
Just wait and see
You're just like me, yeah
Conversation's getting stale
A penny for your thoughts
One small betrayal

[Bridge]
Does no man know what he's good for?
Does no man want what he's asked for?
It's all lost, filling spaces
It takes our design
[Verse 3]
I've spent a lifetime waiting for the chance to chase these devils away
But they always come smiling when you need them the most
So I'll end this night alone again
With nothing to offer, nothing to give
Conversation spoken in vain alone

[Outro]
So go away
It's easier if I stay
So go away
It's easier this way
