When you stumble through the shadows and the smoke
When you freeze before you take another turn
In a city of seduction, where forgotten children choke
There are secrets you were never meant to learn
And a demon who will break you as you burn
In the chaos of your nightmares he will find you
In the corridors of pain he creeps behind you
In the shiver of your skin
There is emptiness within
In the unprotected hollows of your heart
He is waiting for your fears to fall apart
There is damaging addiction in your brain
There is nothing you can do to heal the harm
In the everlasting torment of unfathomable pain
He will tempt you with the treason of his charm
With illusions too deceptive to disarm
In the chaos of your nightmares he will find you
In the corridors of pain he creeps behind you
In the shiver of your skin
There is emptiness within
In the unprotected hollows of your heart
He is waiting for your fears to fall apart
When his whispers call you brother
When he flatters like no other
When he offers you the nourishment you need
You will thank him for the fear on which you feed
He’s the puncture of the needle through your skin
He’s the price of every powder, every pill
As you feel his eager fingers find the sickness of your sin
When he sees you won’t survive without the thrill
When you try to hide he knows you never will
In the chaos of your nightmares he will find you
In the corridors of pain he creeps behind you
In the shiver of your skin
There is emptiness within
In the unprotected hollows of your heart
He is waiting for your fears to fall apart
When he preys upon your weakness
In the paralysing bleakness
In the unprotected hollows of your heart
He is waiting for your fears to fall apart
In the shiver of your skin
He will always find the emptiness within
