Evil lies in every man
Born into a lion's den
Evil lies in every man
Will you try and understand this

Evil lies in every man
Born into a lion's den
Evil lies in every man
Will you try and understand this

Another scream's fading
Into the lightning sky
She's crying, denying
The beloved one has died

Her betrothed had found out
Craved for their lives to take
Betrayed by her own kin
Her tears soon grew this lake

Wed in grief, taken in by lies
Chained to the devil in disguise

Evil lies in every man
Born into a lion's den
Evil lies in every man
Will you try and understand this

Imprisoned, kept alive
Inside her golden cage
Her despair, deep mourning
Turned into hate and rage

Cursed all life, her black tears
Drowned castle, land and heir
Her sorrow, affliction
Is what will kill you there

From the ground she now reigns
Spreading madness and pain

Evil lies in every man
Born into a lion's den
Evil lies in every man
Will you try and understand this

At the shore I bemoan
What creature she's become
A sad tale of torment
She'll weep till kingdom come

Behind the clouds a sun is rising
Cut through the veil
The beam is icing me

'Cause her heart knows no light
A blackened soul lurks inside

Evil lies in every man
Born into a lion's den
Evil lies in every man
Will you try and understand this
