Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Evil, runnin' through our brain
We and evil's about the same
Bad blood through our body flows
Where's the love, nobody  knows, oh yeah
(Nobody knows)
(Nobody knows)
(Nobody knows)
[Verse 2]
Beauty, in our face you see
Tryin' to hide all our misery
(Our misery)
(Our misery)
(Our misery)
[Verse 3]
Got evil, runnin' through our brain
Me and evil are about the same, oh, yeah
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 4]
Evil, ooh, in our life
Evil causin' strife
Yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
Lookin' for a place to guide a little light
In our souls and minds, oh, yeah
[Verse 6]
Maybe if we learn to pray
Life would lend us sunshiny days
(Sunshiny  days)
(Sunshiny days)
(Sunshiny days)
[Verse 7]
And evil, that's runnin' through our brain
Turn to love and won't be to blame
(Won't be to blame)
(Won't be to blame)
(Won't be to blame)
[Verse 8]
Evil, yeah, in our life
Evil causin' strife
