The Veil

I remember the day of the reckoning

She said nothing was wrong

She fooled me, she broke me

All she gave me was blame

And the silence I overcame

You didn't share no love

But did you really want love?

I never seen her kind

Digging low into the ground

She hurt me, she shamed me

Always keeping me down

You make a man live so small

Like a little rag doll

You can bet she'll take it all

Evil, waits behind the veil

Nobody knows how far you'll go

Evil, don't you follow your mama, baby

Evil, better look away

Emancipated my soul

Lord, I've let it go and I've grown

You know my gratitude for grace

Ain't gonna waste another moment

Evil, soldier girl's falling down

Why did you send them to the front line

Evil, don't have to be fighting, baby

The open door is your alibi

Evil, you know I got the fix

T.C.I.C. 726

Evil, baby, under the veil

Evil, turn it away
