And so it ends The way that it started With one lonely candle and an ocean that parted A night in the desert with no one to warm The place in my heart that weathered the storm A climb up the mountain where something's on fire A new list of laws to temper desire At the edge of a cliff with a pen in my hand Looking for Satan in the promised land And so it is over Just like it began With the wink of an eye like a flash in the pan At the brink of disaster in line with the night A blind man on crutches who's losing his sight In the alley of death with a bottle of rum Some soggy newspaper and yesterday's gum Blood mixed with sweat as it dries on my lips Swollen blue eyes that once tasted her hips At the edge of a puddle of ashes and sand Looking for Satan in the promised land And so it's completed Just like it was christened With a melody aching when nobody listened With a song in the night and nobody singing The church is on fire but the bells are still ringing The sermon is over The message has died Stranded in silence the truth even lied To the prince and his dog buying time from a fool While the princess gave up and broke every rule At the edge of a nightmare unborn and unmanned Looking for Satan in the promised land And so it ends The way that it started With one lonely candle and an ocean that parted A night in the desert with no one to warm A place in my heart that weathered the storm A climb up the mountain where something's on fire A new list of laws to temper desire At the edge of a cliff with a pen in my hand Looking for Satan in the promised land Where is he now? He's in the promised land I saw him somehow In the promised land In the promised land Were you looking for Satan here in the promised land?
