Evil People Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah, every saint could be a sinner
When their finger's on the trigger
I gave an inch, you take a life
It's do or die
They tried to drown me in the drama
And now I'm swimming with piranhas that bleed me dry
I won't survive but that's alright

[Chorus]
You're just evil people
Cracking smiles and twisting knives
Friendly, but lethal
Like the devil in disguise, hiding in plain sight
You're just evil people
And I don't trust a single fucking one of y'all

[Verse 2]
It's like I can't keep 'em away from me
Could change my name and my identity
But either way, there's no escape
It's all the same
So shapeshift into something wicked
Show us all that villain you hide inside yourself

[Chorus]
Yeah, you're just evil people
Cracking smiles and twisting knives
Friendly, but lethal
Like the devil in disguise, hiding in plain sight
You're just evil people
And I don't trust a single fucking one of y'all
[Bridge]
They're not under your bed
They'll just come out at night
There's no horns on their head
Run all you want but there's nowhere to hide
They're not under your bed
They'll just come out at night
There's no horns on their head
So run all you want but you're still gonna die

[Pre-Chorus]
They're not under your bed
They'll just come out at night
So bleed me dry, I won't survive
But that's alright, you're just...

[Chorus]
You're just evil people
Cracking smiles and twisting knives
Friendly, but lethal
Like the devil in disguise, hiding in plain sight
You're just evil people
You're all just evil people
Evil people
Cracking smiles and twisting knives
Friendly but lethal
Like the devil in disguise, hiding in plain sight
You're just evil people
And I don't trust a single fuckin' one of y'all

“I started drowning in the drama and now I’m swimming with piranha’s”and Cody’s live stream on September 28th
the leaks we’ve seen recently are cryptic texts in reverse.. when reversed they read “I don’t trust a single fuckin one of you”
“Evil people”
And “run all you want but you’re still gonna die.” Not else is known about the song currently beside it being called evil people and having a gothic demon aesthetic
