The Devil's Road

I feel a love sometimes I wish I didn't know If my soul were prized enough I'd sell it for an ounce of gold White knuckles hold this rope It chokes me the more I pull And with every jolt of hope I'm place on this plateau But maybe my blood Isn't what you wanted But God only knows I've lost enough When all of the crops That you sow have rotted You'll have to fold If they know you bluff So rise With fire these eyes ignite The preacher keeps me alive Oh, oh, oh Keeps me alive Oh, oh, oh This road eats through these soles And leaves my feet exposed As asphalt burns the spaces Aching now beneath my toes And hallelujah prayers the man Who will soon implode Cause the hope of the Lord alone Will leave you starved for heaven's throne But maybe my blood Isn't what you wanted But God only knows I've lost enough When all of the crops That you sow have rotted You'll have to fold If they know you bluff So rise With fire these eyes ignite The preacher keeps me alive Oh, oh, oh, oh, woah, woah, oh Our Father Who art in Heaven knows And our Father Deliver us from evil's hold And thy kingdom Well, I know he will withhold Because temptation Has led me down The Devil's Road Because temptation Has led me down The Devil's Road
