lyrics

Wrestled with God at the edge of a knife
Fought so long I forgot wrong and right
Devil beside me held my hand and the light
Out of mind , they push you out of sight

All arise

A hand on the trigger & a hand on my mouth
My name is the Devil & I my name is doubt
“Civilize the mind, make my body a slave
Do what thou wilst & live the life that you make”

All arise

Wrestled with God at the edge of a knife
Fought so long I forgot wrong and right
“Civilize the mind, make my body a slave
Do what thou wilst & live the life that you make”

All arise
