[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 1]
Another scream's fading
Into the lightning sky
She's crying, denying
The beloved one has died

[Verse 2]
Her betrothed had found out
Craved for their lives to take
Betrayed by her own kin
Her tears soon grew this lake

[Bridge]
Wed in grief, taken in by lies
Chained to the devil in disguise
[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
Imprisoned, kept alive
Inside her golden cage
Her despair, deep mourning
Turned into hate and rage

[Verse 4]
Cursed all life, her black tears
Drowned castle, land and heir
Her sorrow, affliction
Is what will kill you there

[Bridge]
From the ground, she now reigns
Spreading madness and pain
[Chorus]
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?

Evil lies in every man
Evil lies in every man
Evil lies in every man
Evil lies in every man
Evil lies in every man

[Verse 5]
At the shore I bemoan
What creature she's become
A sad tale of torment
She'll weep till kingdom come

[Verse 6]
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
[Chorus]
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?
