Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Both talking in a tight circle Both claiming they're the light One says "Run it up Take what's yours" Other says "Breathe You don't need more" I'm stuck in the crossfire Closing my eyes Two different halos Both telling me lies Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Tug of war over my heartbeat Every wrong Every right If I move If I stay Who's older This fear or this fight Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Red pen circling all my failures Gold ink underlines my name One throws gasoline on my anger One keeps asking me to change One says "Burn it down Feel that rush" Other says "Soft word Gentle touch" I'm laughing and crying in the same breath Dancing on a razor Flirting with regret Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Tug of war over my heartbeat Every wrong Every right If I move If I stay Who's older This fear or this fight Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Left side says "You're broken Own it" Right side says "You're bruised But growing" They both fit like a second skin I don't know where they end I begin So I draw a line right through the middle Tell them both "You don't decide" If I'm the sum of every signal I'll choose which voice I amplify Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right Tug of war over my heartbeat Every wrong Every right If I move If I stay Who's older This fear or this fight Whispers Devil on my left shoulder Angel on my right
