The Evil That Men Do

[Verse]
Dark alleys whisper
The moon don't care
Fingers clutching secrets
The night is bare
Blood on the walls
Shadows scream blind
Behind every face
A fractured mind
[Chorus]
Oh the evil that men do
It cuts like a blade
From cobblestones to alleys where history's made
Their sins drip heavy
A black crooked line
Oh the evil that men do
A cold design
[Verse]
Jack in the fog with his cruel steel grin
Ripping through the night
Carving his sin
No prayers to halt
No saviors arrive
In the land of the damned
Only one survives
[Chorus]
Oh the evil that men do
It burns in the dark
From the butcher’s cleaver to a killer’s spark
Their ghosts still wander
Haunt the spine
Oh the evil that men do
A twisted vine
[Bridge]
Chains in the basement
Laughter made sick
Faces in freezers
Darkness is thick
Empty eyes stare
A feast for despair
No answers to why
No god’s repair
[Verse]
BTK grinning
Tied and gagged fate
Dahmer’s hunger left love long too late
They built the abyss with their calloused hands
Part of the earth
Part of its strands

hard rock, rock, gritty
