Evil Men

A wickedness that lurks in the night,
A darkness that brings no light,
A cruelness that makes us all shiver,
The evil that we must deliver.

A wickedness that lurks in our minds,
A darkness that we can't define,
A cruelness that's hard to ignore,
The evil that we must explore.

A wickedness that's hard to contain,
A darkness that brings us pain,
A cruelness that's hard to contain,
The evil that we must sustain.

A wickedness that can't be denied,
A darkness that's deep inside,
A cruelness that's hard to explain,
The evil that will remain.
