Lyrics
Touched By Evil
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.
Weren't you the one who lied to hide behind the truth
A twist of fate
The hate you gave came back to you
Did all secrets show a darker side of you
I've been down
But don't count me out
* I lie awake until the dawn
Those empty feelings carry on
Just like a child without a home
There's something dark inside of me
The voice of satan holds the key
Just like the king without a throne
Does anybody really care
** Burning up
Heading down
Touched by evil
Lord, let me out
I see my hangman
Waiting for me
I've seen every little thing
I don't want to see
(solo)
So now your time has come
To meet the one you serve
Your hearts as cold as ice
Your feelings undisturbed
Tongue twisting charmer
Did you leave that fatal clue
I've been down
But don't count me out
(*Repeat)
(**Repeat)
