The Devil’s in the Details

Lyrics
It happened at the mall The grand finale Of stranger things The kid in me remembers How it feels To be grown, but not enough For a child who starts to see The blossom of a life Just beginning So, take me to the mall And wash me in the stream The devil's in the details, baby Send the children off to war Drafted by poverty The senators son is Safely sound asleep Aw, but let us forget the war And buy something pretty Change the channel Crеate the illusion of real safеty The lord is at the mall And the demons are in the trees The devil's in the details, baby Growing up at the mall Amidst the fruits of slavery We all stand complicit in The greed Going to Sephora To find a different face With enough paint I'll disappear without a trace From the TV I learned it all And I practice what they preach The apple don't fall far From the tree I'm uploading my heart and soul As this world sinks into the sea The devil's in the details, baby I have no word for god I'm down on bended knees Praying to whoever Might could save me Look beyond my eyes And tell me what you see Can you see the truth Beyond the fear? Though fleeting, they may seem Our thoughts and our deeds Are carved in stone and steel For all to see Look back on our actions Will we ever be redeemed? The devil's in the details, baby
