This business is a bloody one
And these hands are dripping
Every night I can hear them
Banging on the inside
This business
I’ve tried to turn my eyes away
But still I hear them
I don’t know if I can do this anymore
I find the words so hard to find
This business
Can’t go on in silence
As if all time stands still
Shadows gather round us
And there’s a devil…..that lies within
I can’t go on in silence
I could never draw that line
Like the black ice of a frozen heart
There’s a devil deep inside
This business
There’s a devil…..
