Lyrics
Devil Standing Alone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some might say in the moments not yet seen
there's a truth, an answer for most anything
but sometimes desire calls for reckoning
the entire world around me closes in
..takes me in and leaves me numb
God give me strength to know this voice
that haunts me's not the only one
Devil standing alone,
take my breath
leave my soul
I come undone no more
You've been calling this name
far too long
I am strong
and as this part of me dies
I'll smile again
Simpler times, no need to force the world away
just a child, no chemical reality
In one night, a whisper thrown against the wind
desire closed my eyes to innocence
Where's my answers?
Where's my truth?
I leave behind these
not so dotted lines
that led me straight to you
Devil standing alone, take my breath
leave my soul.. I come undone.. no more
You've been calling this name
far too long
I am strong
and as this dies
I'll live again
Take the hurt from my family
Take the burn from my eyes
leave my love in it's place
Save what's left of my sanity
'cause it's time to show you
I finally know you
