Devil Standing Alone

Some might say in the moments not yet seen
there's a truth, 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
I come 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 truth?
I leave behind these
not so dotted lines
that led me straight to you

Devil standing alone, take my breath
leave my soul.. I come 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
