Alone
She's drowning in despair
Gasping out for air
And finding none to spare
Wounded
Weak and cursing God
Meek and spinning 'round
Infinite spiral down
She cries
In never ending night
My shadows blanket down
And soothe her growing fright
The rage
She's just so full of hate
I draw a crooked smile
Your dark lord awaits
(Chorus)
I smile
You suffer
My hands
Your throat
Drink deep
The sorrow
And taste
Your guilt
Built up
To crumble
My house
Of Cards
One and
One thousand
Knives stab
Your heart
A voice
Small and hard to hear
Whispers in your mind
You have so much to fear
You're lost
But I can be your friend
Make the torment end
Then start it all again
You're hurt
Staring daggers at the world
Questioning your worth
Scared little girl
Let me save you time
All you are is mine
Not even worth a dime
[Chorus]
You think that I've been beat
And dare I cry defeat
My name will travel on
Hunter of the shadows
Haunter of the night
Immortal and eternal
I will rise
Blood is on your hands
I was just the knife
You're still a hopeless wretch
A lamp without a light
Someday
Shadows will appear
You'll know that I draw near
And remember how you feared
