[Intro]
Am
[Verse 1]
AmIs there an evil in this world?
Yes, there's an evil in this world
Is there an Dmevil in this world?
Yes, there's an eAmvil in this world
And it cDmreeps upEm from behind Fyou
When you are least suspeAmctin'
[Verse 2]
Is there a Amdog in this race?
Yes, there's a dog in this race
I'm lookDmin' at his tail
But I'm thinkin' abAmout his face
So I Dmkeep on pushin' forEmward
AcFquirin' and collectAmin'
Is there an aDmbsoluteEm beginnin'
Or soFmething beyond the end?
Will I come Dmback as that Emdog?
Will I have to Flive through this again?
The trDmuth seeps out Embetween us
In the Fspaces that we're neglectiAmng
[Interlude]

Dm Em F Am
[Verse 3]
When Ampush comes to shove
And our devils come at us running
Will we be cDmaught in the flood
Or something far less stAmunning?
Will that sDmerum keep us honEmest
From the aFnswers we're deflectAming?
[Verse 4]
There's a vAmoice within the void
And I swear it sounds familiar
Within the trutDmhs that we've destroyed
Whisperin', "Come heAmre"
And the anDmswer is within Emyou
But it Fkeeps on disconnectiAmng
There's an eDmvil in this woEmrld
I've seFen it in the news
Of baDmbies dead Emin schools
Or scaFttered in the pews
For rDmeasons without ansEmwers
In theF dark, beyond protectAmion
[Interlude]

Dm Em F Am
[Verse 5]
I'm moving Amthrough the void
Starin' down the fright show
StandDmin' in the darkness
Just waiting for the light sAmhow
I tDmry with all my Emmight
To seek theF truth you've been rejecAmting
[Verse 6]
SeekiAmng some salvation
To the limits of my talents
I hoDmld my family close
Just tryin' to find the balAmance
Between the bDmad shit goin' Emdown
And Fthe beauty this life can keep injectAming
There's a whDmiplash in the Emnews
The Fevil man's tirades
A jokeDmr's motorEmcade
FAnd military parades
LivesDm in the balEmance of the diFrty deals made
To win electiAmons
[Interlude]

[Outro]
DmGuns and ammEmunition, Fbabies in a cage
They say Dmnothing can be dEmone
But they Ftell us how they prayed
In the eDmnd, we're just Emstandin' watchin' Fgreatness fade
Into daAmrkness
