Down In the Valley

Yeah,I've been down in the valley Down in the depths of darkness inside the devils dirtiest alleys I've seen demons rally while destroying our dreams I've seen sad ones sigh and silent ones scream I've been stalked by scarecrows of scorn and shadows of death Every insanity inch Satan steals my last breath Yeah,I've been down in the valley Valley's full of vipers and vultures Self-sabotage in retarded sub-cultures I've feasted on fruit from many temptation trees Forbidden soon fallen to my bruised and bloody knees Yeah,I've been down in the valley Where shepherds of sin live their darkest desires Where the fallen and forgotten stay frozen in the fire Where monsters and madmen they mangle the meek Where wolves wait at wishing wells on those sleepwalking sheep Yeah,I've been down in the valley and I don't want to go back Where evil ones attack and the wicked bring wrath The valley is behind me The cross is now before me No weapon formed against me can ever destroy me Yes,I live in the lights on those heavenly heights Yeah,I've been down in the valley That's the end of that neverending night
