In The Deep Of The Night Lyrics - Rough Silk

Where the rich become the beggars 

And the wise become the fools 

Some jaded heart may turn the page 

And start to break the rules 

Way beyond the distance 

The knaggy oaks of truth 

Wake thoughts of resistance 

And send you on the loose 

In the deep of the night 

With your face on the ground 

You'll learn to spit at the devil 

Not to get pushed around 

In the deep of the night 

When you gaze at the stars 

When the fogs cry "freedom" 

You'd better count your scars 

Maybe I'm sinner 

And maybe I ain't no saint 

But I know the ancient dreams 

Of the bounded and the chained 

Slavery or justice 

Holy preacher's fail 

But preservatived lust 

Is getting outa jail now 

In the deep of the night 

With your face on the ground 

You'll learn to spit at the devil 

Not to get pushed around
