DEVIL MAY CARE There's a crowd to be deceived Another martyr joins the team Cults become regimes Their sins sanctioned by their creed Past the angels and the demons I've abandoned alone Past the unforgiven lovers Crying to free their bones In the ocean of a lifetime To a rowboat lost at sea With no partner and no compass No one aboard but me Creatures dive from the sky No honest man escapes No God left to defy In the freezing water In the darkest of days No sense of destination... They say, "God won't lead you Where grace can't find" Is that a comfort Or a flawed design? They say, "God won't lead you Where grace can't find" Then why did he leave her So far behind? Goblins hungry for young fruit Childish boredom with their youth Hidden corners where they meet Border battles end in defeat From the depths of de profundis To those chasing the stars From the fires of a hunter To those praying in dark From the weakness of a saint To the heart of the beast With the bitter taste of failure And the let down of peace Creatures dive from the sky No honest man escapes No God left to defy In the freezing water In the darkest of days No sense of destination But they always say... They say, "God won't lead you Where grace can't find" Is that a comfort Or a flawed design? The real villain got away The scapegoat will have to pay With virgins on display The witch hunt takes centerstage
