4. The Evil That Men Do (4:35)
Love is a razor and I walked the line on that silver blade
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with
The slaughter of innocence
And I will pray for her.
I will call her name out loud.
I would bleed for her.
If I could only see her now.
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge on...
Balancing on a ledge on...
Balancing on a ledge on...
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge you know ... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on !....[x4]
Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me.
And I will pray for you.
...Some day I may return.
Don't you cry for me
Beyond is where I learn.
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge you know... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on! [x4]
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge you know ... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on! [x4]
The evil !
The evil !
The evil that men do...
The evil !
The evil !
The evil that men do...
Yeah yeah!!
Slept in the dust with his daughter, her eyes red with
The slaughter of innocence
And I will pray for her.
I will call her name out loud.
I would bleed for her.
If I could only see her now.
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge on...
Balancing on a ledge on...
Balancing on a ledge on...
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge you know ... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on !....[x4]
Circle of fire my baptism of joy at an end it seems
The seventh lamb slain, the book of life opens before me.
And I will pray for you.
...Some day I may return.
Don't you cry for me
Beyond is where I learn.
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge you know... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on! [x4]
Living on a razor's edge.
Balancing on a ledge.
Living on a razor's edge you know ... you know !!
The evil that men do lives on and on! [x4]
The evil !
The evil !
The evil that men do...
The evil !
The evil !
The evil that men do...
Yeah yeah!!
