the devil is alive and well

surf the web

turn on the news

same old story

everyday

hateful words

that we all use

so much anger

so much pain

i don't know

if you believe in heaven

i don't know

if you believe in hell

but i bet we can agree that the devil

is alive and well

alive and well

the darkest prison

to the largest church

sometimes for fortune

sometimes for fame

it's ironic

that some of the worst things

are done in god's name

i don't know

if you believe in heaven

i don't know

if you believe in hell

but i bet we can agree that the devil

is alive and well

alive and well

we can debate what's real

what's right

what's true

what's sent from above

all i know is i'd be weary of anything that isn't based in love

'cause god is love

i don't know

if you believe in heaven

i don't know

if you believe in hell

but i bet we can agree that the devil

is alive and well

alive and well
