jonathan mann - the devil was there all along lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
there are churches in new england where i grew up
that are ’round to keep the devil out
what is underneath them? no one ever asks
the past stays buried in the ground

[verse 2]
but if you go spelunking down into the dark
you’d hear the strings of a familiar song
on up through the pews, rustling in the trees
the devil was there all along

[chorus]
the devil was there all along
in felled trees and fences made of stone
in hearts that knеw they don’t belong
oh, the dеvil was there all along

[verse 3]
the land was always wild until we came
and built our churches in the marsh
pushing and k!lling with judging eyes
feeling superior but afraid of the dark

[verse 4]
and so in those round churches we stood in circles
sining all of our holy songs
the devil was there, singing alongside us
yeah, the devil was there all along
[chorus]
the devil was there all along
in the felled trees and fences made of stone
in the hearts that knew they don’t belong
the devil was there all along

[outro]
oh, the devil was there all along
oh, the devil was there all along
