The slow tunes echo off the walls
The sound of country that calls
Calls me into a deep sleep
A place where I can't hear a peep
Not a whisper or a word
Just the sweet old music of that I once heard
The darkness Is out
The happiness is in
The only place I feel no sin
The sin of death has rained upon me
The devil has been reaching for me
Trying to get me to make a move
Ruin the temple of our lord
I'm so close yet too far
I used to be a star
Flying high and so close to God
But now I'm low
In the pit of snow
There's no question to my thoughts
No answer to my faith
I'm seeping lower and lower
And one day ill wake up from a nightmare
Instead of a good dream
An when my dreams can't even save me
Ill fall to my knees
But just to find that the clock has run out
And no matter how much I scream and shout
The devil won't let me out
