The Devil is alive and well
He dwells inside my personal hell
Where I can't hear the church bells no more
A quiet yell, a silent scream
Wake me up from this sick dream
And tell me that heaven is real
It's getting further and further
And further away
It's getting further and further
And further every single day
And harder to feel
The Devil is alive and well
He's got me under his relentless spell
Where I can't hear the wedding bells no more
Just the persistence of loneliness
A hole in the wall, a clenched fist
Tell me that heaven is real
It's getting further and further
And further away
It's getting further and further
And further every single day
And harder to feel
I know that heaven is real
Maybe now I just can't feel its touch
There's something more but I don't know
Which door I should pick
One leads to certain failure
The other is a shot out in the dark
I want to be believe I stand a chance
But it's always so disheartening
When it turns out the same way
It's always so disheartening
I end up stuck in the same place
I'm always stuck in this place
