Devil's in the Details
When your legs refuse to carry you and your heart is heavy with loss
That's when the devil comes, their tongue dripping silver
And how can you blame those who sold their soul
Heaven was silent
Our salvation lies in that which lifts us up from the sodden dirt
We pay no import to the hooked claws and forked tongue of our saviour
The eternal fires of hell thaw our frozen and numb bodies
Hell reached out
That's when the devil comes, their tongue dripping silver
And how can you blame those who sold their soul
Heaven was silent
Our salvation lies in that which lifts us up from the sodden dirt
We pay no import to the hooked claws and forked tongue of our saviour
The eternal fires of hell thaw our frozen and numb bodies
Hell reached out
