The Devil Is All Around

When the devil is all around

Got you crawling on the ground

On your hands and your knees

With an apple in your mouth

You will know how far you'll go

To make your peace with God

I got wasted

And I sat around the fire all day

See if I could find someone

To make love to

And I barely even noticed

How the fibers did tear away

From the fabric of my being

But nobody knows it like you do, babe

Nobody knows it like you do

Nobody knows it like you do, babe

The lengths we will go to

I'm going down a long road

Maybe it's the wrong road

Either way I've gotta find

My way back home again

Well, it's too late to turn back now

Gotta get the lead on out

Gotta find some way to make it right on

But nobody knows it like you do, babe

Nobody knows it like you do

Nobody knows it like you do, babe

The lengths we will go to

There must be some other way

I just don't know

Gotta get myself back up on that high road

But nobody knows it like you do

So I'm gonna be a good man

Gonna do the best that I can

Though I'm a shell of a man that I once was

And if I find forgiveness in the eyes of God

It'll be hard won, I assure you

When the devil is all around

Got you crawling on the ground

On your hands and your knees

With an apple in your mouth

You will know how far you'll go

To make your peace with God

Yeah

You will know how far you'll go

To make your peace with God
