Well hello Devil
hello hello
haven't seen you in a while
almost forgot the fucking contours of your face
almost forgot the lash of your firewhip
DEVIL
Just because you vomit it doesn't mean it's poison. You don't know what you're rejecting. It's all right. It's temporary
(that's the litany)

I won't take that from you
You Keep Me Hangin' On (mp3, 2 megs and change) (Brian Hollant, Lamont Dozier, Edward Holland, Jr.; Stone Agate Music Division [BMI])
