Song Lyrics

Lord knows the devil don't sleep
He never shuts his eyes
You never hear him creepin', yeah

Battle scars on my heart
Lord knows this war ain't over, no
It's just gettin' started
Just when you thought you had him beat
He's on your shoulder
He's in your ear, he's whisperin'
Lyin' again, and again, and again
You tell yourself he'll leave you alone
You turn your back, and brother man, it's on

Lord knows the devil don't sleep
He never shuts his eyes
You never hear him creepin'
Heaven knows he's hell bent on me
Shackles and chains, thank God that He can break me free
'Cause Lord knows the devil don't sleep

He's at your door, don't let him in
He'll lie, he'll steal, he'll kill, he'll win
Just ask me, I've been there
All you'll have left is a desperate prayer
You pray to God, He'll save your soul
Like He has a thousand times before

Lord knows the devil don't sleep
He never shuts his eyes
You never hear him creepin'
Heaven knows he's hell bent on me
Shackles and chains, thank God that He can break me free
'Cause Lord knows the devil don't sleep
The devil don't sleep, no

Lord knows the devil don't sleep
He never shuts his eyes
You never hear him creepin'
Heaven knows he's hell bent on me
Shackles and chains, thank God that He can break me free

Lord knows the devil don't sleep
He never shuts his eyes
You never hear him creepin'
Heaven knows he's hell bent on me
Shackles and chains, thank God that He can break me free
'Cause Lord knows the devil don't sleep

The devil don't sleep
The devil don't sleep, yeah
