|
He spoke of tortured souls; |
|
So outrageous the toll |
|
You can lose all you have |
|
He refused to give in to the town that takes all |
|
Survive, you must have the will |
|
This movie doesn't end the way we want all the time |
|
Then he shouts at the moon |
|
She's gone, and fear has overcome |
|
He was walking the mile, he was walking alone |
|
So outrageous the toll |
|
You can lose all you have |
|
He refused to give in to the town that takes all |
|
Survive, you must have the will |
|
This movie doesn't end the way we want all the time |
|
Then he shouts at the moon |
|
She's gone, and fear has overcome |
|
He was walking the mile, he was walking alone |
|
Four and twenty deadbirds, they bleed upon the nest |
|
There was no time for reason, they had no sign of a threat |
|
Now it's too late, too late for me |
|
This town will eventually take me |
|
Too late, too late for me |
|
This town will win |
|
Through this fog they come along |
|
Dark creatures singing a terrible song |
|
The rest of the bar laughed at him |
|
Only I felt my hope grow dim |
|
They found him dead the very next day |
|
"No more stories from him," I heard them say |
|
We blamed bad luck for his fate |
|
Only I felt terror so great |
|
She and he will know |
|
that someday all things will end |
|
That misty night, that dismal room |
|
The dead search for the kill |
|
While angels sleep in endless dark |
|
The dead seek out sin |
