Lyrics

THE BACKWARD CLOWN
 

You know the devil is breaking in everyone's house, yes he is, brother
And the one who waits outside is the One that you should glorify
And He's crying for you

But you won't open the door
You keep asking for more

The devil will lead you out into his amusement park
And then he'll turn out the lights and leave you helpless in the dark, crying
So don't touch him because he's the backward clown
Changing everybody's smiles into a frown

So when he breaks through your door
Just expose him and tell him you don't want anymore
Because I've had just about all I can take
Of this backward clown, I know he's a fake

Why is everybody trying to find out how to be
The answer lies in the Lord, I can't tell you only He
So drop your idols, baby, this selfish world you trust
Because everything you own in the end returns to dust

Don't you know who you are? You're God's children!(4x)

He's waiting at your door
You're laying on your floor
Just reach your hand to the door
I just can't take anymore

Don't you know who you are? You're God's children! (repeat)
