Deepest Evil in the Heart of Man

(The Prairie Scholars)
July 12, 2010
Andy Eppler

A song about facing one's humanity.

 

I can feel the blood

Moving through my hand

It came from the darkness

In the heart of man

Is there any good I can do

All my labors are faded through

And you Can’t trust the man who wont look you in the eye

But I feel you looking through my skin disguise

 

I’m so broken now I can’t believe my love

Could ever be much good

Not good enough for you

Cause I feel the darkness. I feel it in my bones

 and  I see it in my mind

 when I should be seeing you

 

 

Deepest evil in the heart of man

Beating cold in my chest

Broken promises, one night stands,

Murder greed and the rest

And you can’t trust me cause I am just like you

And we both do what we both have to do

 

 

Such natural evil livin in my soul

Doin my best to survive it

I can drain myself of  self-control

I can still just barely hide it

But you can’t b’leive me and my forked tongue

Even I can’t believe the selfish things I’ve done

 

 

When you’re with me I can see the sun

my mind a bloom in wild flowers

all my consciousness comes undone

as I lay here with you for hours
