Chófer Del Diablo

I hate waking up early but here I am anyways. I feel like writing about one of my favorite bands, DevilDriver. I love DevilDriver to death. I plan on getting their logo tattooed sometime in the near future. It has been almost 7 years since I first discovered them. They're very dark and really "fuck you" in your face kind of music, which just makes them that much better. They've meant so much to me over the years and helped me get through (and still helping me) some really horrible times. I've seen them four times live with a fifth coming in November. So I'm just going to post my favorite songs (I have a lot) followed by my favorite lyrics from the song. I'll post more on another day.

Favorites

 Take advantage,manipulate
Take advantage,you piece of shit

Grinfuck
Debt paid in full!
You won't Grinfuck me!

 Get out, leave it far behind
Get the fuck out!

Run now…to save your soul
Run now…to take control
Run now…to save your life
Run now…it's do or die
Just run…
 Every sorrow has its source
And your conscience isn't free
In the dog days of Summer
On another sober September
This was meant for you
...
They pray for villains
When their heroes let them down
 Making the best of a bad situation
Making the best of!
Making the best of a bad situation
Making the best of!

This is your conscience speaking, spare your spirit
Trouble is on its way, it's on its way
Teach me to whisper
Cause I feel like screaming, teach me to whisper

All of your hopes and dreams, never meant shit
 If that's the way it's gonna be the I'll fuckin' go it alone
I'm a saint in sinners eyes
Curse the clouds over California
This is the call to obey
Let the chaos reign!
 These fighting words deserve exile
Banished! Unbelievable, unbelievable, invincible...right!
 My stomach's in knots
Throw at me what you got
'Cause I will break free,
of all the webs that bind me

I'm fit to be tied
I've got you dead to rights
 You've burned the bridges
You've sowed the lies
You've burned the bridge
You're on the shitlist!
With everything you do
With everything you are 
Everything you say, you take it too far 
You make me sick, you make me sick! 
This sour taste remains, this sour taste remains disdain
 The world is venomous, it's fucking relentless!

Scrutinized, no one denies
You play the victim
Coldblooded, coldblooded
 And if we lose 
We're going straight to Hell
Straight to Hell
I could care less
Straight to Hell
 Lost sleep, count sheep
Can't see them to get my mind off of things
Toss and turn, candles burn
Grinding teeth and night endlessly

Old habits die hard and I've lived so fast
And I know it's a long way down
Like a stray dog, brought back to the fold
Out in the cold, brought back to the fold
But I still stand by

You'll never justify
Better, better sanctify
You'll never rectify
Your self-affliction
