Got my finger on the trigger
But I don't know who to trust
I look into your eyes
There's just devils and dust
We're a long, long way from home Bob
Home's a long, long way from us
Feel the dirty winds blowin'
Devils and dust
I got God on my side
I'm just trying to survive
But if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear is a powerful thing
It can turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God-filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
Well I dreamed of you last night
In a field of blood and stone
Blood began to dry
And a smell began to rise
Well I dreamed of you last night Mom
In a field of mud and bone
And your blood began to dry
The smell began to rise
Got God on our side
We're just trying to survive
But if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear is a powerful thing
It'll turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God-filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
It'll take your God-filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
Now every woman and every man
They wanna take your right to stand
Find the love with God wills
The faith that He commands
I've got my finger on the trigger
Tonight faith just ain't enough
And I look inside my heart
There's just devils and dust
But I've got God on my side
And I'm just trying to survive
But if what you do to survive
Kills the things you love
Fear is a dangerous thing
It'll turn your heart black you can trust
It'll take your God-filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
It'll take your God-filled soul
Fill it with devils and dust
