[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Revenge is sweet for those who wait

Never early, always late

Waiting now to consummate

A marriage made in hell

Hand in hand, you walk alone

As good advice seems to drone

Evil cuts right to the bone

[Chorus]

Has it come?

Awaken me

Is it done

And will it ever die?

Will it go?

Taking me

Don't you know?

Evil... never dies

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

Keep me close to your heart

Adversity will come apart

And finish just before you start

Never question why

Today was then, remember when

Skipping numbers one through ten

Permanence through the pen

[Chorus]

Has it come?

Awaken me

Is it done

And will it ever die?

Will it go?

Taking me

Don't you know?

Evil... never dies

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge 1]

Read the rights, a prophet's word

I've learned to deal with the absurd

And reach a darkened

Pinnacle of light

[Bridge 2]

Money-hungry, power-thirsty

Penny-pinching, fear-inflicting

Double-crossing, backstabbing

Promising eternity for a price

Suckin', brainwashing

Mind-raping, soul-stealing

Constant preaching, salvation-reaching

Lowest form of human fucking life

Evil never dies

[Verse 3]

Laughter stands accusing me

Emotion stands abusing me

The battered and the bruising me

Is there darkness when you die?

Heard a sound, no one there

I heard a shot, no one cares

Laughter turns into despair

[Chorus]

Has it come?

Awaken me

Is it done

And will it ever die?

Will it go?

Taking me

Don't you know?

Evil... never dies

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]

Evil hidden everywhere

Evil has a chilling stare

Null and void of any care

Is where the answer lies

It does no good to beg or cry

It does no good to question why

It does no good; it never dies

Evil never dies

[Chorus]

Has it come?

Awaken me

Is it done

And will it ever die?

Will it go?

Taking me

Don't you know?

Evil... never dies

[Outro]

Has it come?

Awaken me

Is it done

Will it go?

Taking me

Don't you know?

Evil... never... dies!
