“Devil In The Details' for me, touches on the choices we make, as well as the things that are out of our control, and the consequences those things can have. How do these things shape our paths? It’s about questioning our purpose, finding clarity, and perhaps even challenging the things that feel most safe to us,” said DeWyze.

“Devil in the Details” Lyrics
Written by Lee DeWyze
I’ve been wondering lately, about what I’m doing here
Through all the pills and coffee, I can swear I’m thinking clear
Oh if this is where I’m supposed to be God, you can rest your case
Until I find the answer, I’m a prisoner in this place
Oh my God, Oh my God
What do you have in store for me?
Is it the living or the dying that will someday set me free?
Here I am, here I am, I can bend my knees no more
They say the Devil’s in the details, but I’d swear he’s at my door
I was so much younger, and my father said to me
You have to make your way in life or you’ll end up just like me
So I watched him work away his love and his passion for this place
Oh tell me lord, is that your way, of showing people grace?
Oh my God, Oh my God
What do you have in store for me?
Is it the living or the dying that will someday set me free?
Here I am, here I am, I can bend my knees no more
They say the Devil’s in the details, but I’d swear he’s at my door
Broken gravestones in the churchyard, where the pastor says his prayers
Knowing all too well that someday, he’ll be buried under there
So before I go you all should know I’m prepared to pay my dues
If my debt’s too big for heaven’s gates, I’ll do what I have to do
Oh my God, Oh my God
What do you have in store for me?
Is it the living or the dying that will someday set me free?
Here I am, here I am, I can bend my knees no more
They say the Devil’s in the details, but I’d swear he’s at my door
Oh my God, Oh my God
What do you have in store for me?
Is it the living or the dying that will someday set me free?
Here I am, here I am, I can bend my knees no more
They say the Devil’s in the details, but I’d swear he’s at my door
Oh my God, Oh my God
What do you have in store for me?
Is it the living or the dying that will someday set me free?
Here I am, here I am, I can bend my knees no more
They say the Devil’s in the details, but I’d swear he’s at my door
