The Evil We Love Lyrics by Steven S. Billings

The Journey Home

0

You're my favorite attraction; You can always catch my eye
There's a physical reaction, And I feel like I could fly
Straight up through the heavens And to the stars above
I'm addicted to the evil I love
Drivin’ past the nightclub, Nothing on my mind
‘Til I hear that siren whisper, "Come and see what you might find
In here you won't be lonely; You'll find what you're dreaming of
You can't deny the evil you love."
In the mornin’ I felt guilty and couldn't stand the pain
Of knowin’ I had stumbled And fallen once again
But how could I resist it When it fit me like a glove?
I was shackled to the evil I love!
When the evil you love Got a strangle-hold on you
No matter how you fight it, Seems there's nothin’ you can do
The Father sent His Son For times when push turns into shove
And they nailed Him up for the evil you love
Well, I cried out to my Savior And I fell down to my knees
"Oh, Lord God, I need You, Dear Jesus, help me please!
Take this thorn and free me From those things I'm guilty of
Release me from the evil I love."
He said: "Son, I know you're hurtin’; I can see it on your face
But you're gonna have to trust Me And lean upon My grace
For this is why I suffered And gave my flesh and blood
I'm sufficient for the evil you love"
When the evil you love Got a strangle-hold on you
No matter how you fight it, Seems there's nothin’ you can do
The Father sent His Son For times when push turns into shove
And they nailed Him up for the evil you love
Now I know that I'm not perfect On this side of the veil
But I know that I’m forgiven Despite how I might fail
But I also am empowered By the Spirit from above
To turn my back on the evil I love!
When the evil you love Got a strangle-hold on you
No matter how you fight it, Seems there's nothin’ you can do
The Father sent His Son For times when push turns into shove
And they nailed Him up for the evil you love
But He rose again for the evil we love!
