lyrics

Lyrics:

Out of the shadows I,
I crawl into your life
I am a thief and I have come upon the night

All of your locks and gates
all of your towers high
they cannot keep me out they only make me want it more

And so the night is quiet
I revel in my sin
I'm waiting here for my moment make my strike

And so the tower pure
I climb up scale the walls
And I see treasure here I cannot comprehend

I'm comin
I'm comin
I'm comin

Oh my friend you know I dare not make a sound
I see you lying here, you're not suppose to be
Oh my friend I know it just isn't fair
But now you've seen my face

Now suffer the consequence

It was so beautiful
Here at your funeral
The kind words and all the world out here to see you float
I wish that you could see
But that's Ironic, see?
Because I killed you and your body is floating down the river

They're coming
They're Coming
To get me now

Oh my friend I know it just isn't fair
They all came for me
I'm swinging from the gallows
But now my body is swinging tossed into the river
We're all the same tonight

And floating down the river.
