If you cry by the riverside - well, no one will know
If you hide in the shadows - well, you will be ignored
If I hold my life in my hands - no one will understand*
and if I should die before I wake - I'd like to make the reason known

If you stand on hollowed ground - your shadow boxing with your soul
and there'll be nothing left for you to hold
and so your fears release control

Devils at your doorstep
well I said God all mighty, laugh out
Devils at your doorstep
well I said God all mighty, laugh out loud!

Hung on all fours, swing low from the mouthpiece
it's your only home
Hung far below, that's all that the end brings
you're left all alone

Now we are passing over,
this mournful character pales
moving still bodies of the dead
in their glory days

Now you've had it - all else fades
Now you've had it, in our.......

If I hold my life in my hands - no one will understand
and if I should die before I wake - I'd like to make the reason known

Devils at your doorstep
well I said "God all mighty, laugh out loud!"
Devils at your doorstep
well I said "God all mighty, laugh out loud!"

It's your only home
you're left all alone

And now we have passed over
this mournful character paled
moving still bodies of the dead
in our glory days

Now we've had it - all else fades
now we've had it, in our........

If you cry by the riverside - well no one will know
