"Speak Of God, Act Like The Devil" lyrics

Speak Of God, Act Like The Devil

Speak of God
Act like the devil
Every chance of peace
You let go by
Speak of God
Act like the devil
However long you live
You're gonna hear this cry

On the bones
Of whose children do you sleep?
Forever more
You're gonna hear their mothers weep
The raging thunder
Will never cease, no
For you there'll never gonna be
No peace

Speak of God
Well
And you act like the devil
Yeah

Your clever talking
Will get you nowhere
Because there's nowhere
Left to go
The wrongs been done now
And now it's over
But forever
Oh, God will know

You speak of God
Oh, you act like the devil
Yeah, act like the devil

You're an angel
Of destruction
You're a bucket full of tears
And broken bones
So many died
Upon your daydreams
Now the truth
Ain't never gonna let you go home
Oh, no

You speak of God
Well
You act like the devil
Speak of God
Yeah, yeah
But you act like the devil
Like the devil
