Some might say in the moments not yet seen 
there's a [bad word]  an answer for most anything 
but sometimes desire calls for reckoning 
the entire world around me closes in 

..takes me in and leaves me numb 
God give me strength to know this voice 
that haunts me's not the only one 

Devil standing alone, 
take my breath 
leave my soul  [bad word] undone no more 
You've been calling this name 
far too long 
I am strong 
and as this part of me dies 
I'll smile again 

Simpler times, no need to force the world away 
just a child, no chemical reality 
In one night, a whisper thrown against the wind 
desire closed my eyes to innocence 

Where's my answers? 
Where's my [bad word]  
I leave behind these 
not so dotted lines 
that led me straight to you 

Devil standing alone, take my breath 
leave my soul.. [bad word] undone.. no more 
You've been calling this name 
far too long 
I am strong 
and as this dies 
I'll live again 

Take the hurt from my family 
Take the burn from my eyes 
leave my love in it's place 
Save what's left of my sanity 
'cause it's time to show you 
I finally know you 

Devil standing alone, take my breath 
leave my soul.. [bad word] undone.. no more 

Devil standing alone, take my breath 
leave my soul.. [bad word] undone.. no more 

Devil standing alone, take my breath 
leave my soul.. [bad word] undone.. no more 
 [bad word]  [bad word] forthetaking
