[Verse] And the general of Hell said, "In the twentieth century the truth made the devil worse" And now it's hard to tell which is which And the general of Hell said, "In the twentieth century the truth made the devil worse" And now it's hard to tell which is which General of Hell [Intro] Toughest thing about the truth is that it makes the devil worse Since the last century, can't tell which is which You ever had a general from Hell tell you... [Verse] Sayin', "This was gonna be the last time"? Ever tried to stare him in his damn eyes? Ever been one of his band guys? That could be a whole thing I could give you all the inner workings of his close team You ever seen an angel with the devil wings? It's like a... Ever seen a big play turn into a Hail Mary? Hail Mary, full of grace, the entity is with you The love in your heart is something they cannot steal If it wasn't worth the truth, it wouldn't work for me You ever seen an angel with the devil wings?

The real ones never sing In the 20th century, the truth made the devil worse Since the last century, hard to tell which is which The thing I know for sure is that only one exists... When the general of hell says "follow" we march in step just to feel complete If the truth made the devil worse in the last dark century Now it's hard to tell which is which and which one is me [Bridge] So if every mask got welded to skin If every small lie got filed as "win" If the devil took notes every time we spoke Did we hand him the script did we share the joke? When the general of hell says "Stand for what's right" (hey) And it sounds like us on a louder mic I stare in the mirror til the edges twitch Trying to see the line where I end it begins and which is which
