Scared of the Dark - A Work of Art Lyrics

My eyes
Have seen the coming of darkness
Wrapping around my soul
Makes me heartless

But for everything
The demon took from me
He reached inside my head
Set my mind free

Watch the blood run down your chest
Look me in my face again
As the blood runs down your chest
Watch the life leave your eyes as I steal your last breath

You can't trust your own reflection
You can't shake away the past
The only way that you'll find clarity
Is by dancing in the ash
And if you ever thought
That you had even stood a chance
Then you paid too much attention
To the knife inside your back

Twisting perception
My mind's not my own
A demonic reflection
That needs a new host

Forces surround me
The lies are abounding
I can't trust my head
The deception astounding me

You think my demons control me?
I'm the king of my own darkness
It set me free
When you look behind my eyes
And see the diamonds ablaze
You will have no option left
But to burn down this place

You can't trust your own reflection
You can't shake away the past
The only way that you'll find clarity
Is by dancing in the ash
And if you ever thought
That you had even stood a chance
Then you paid too much attention
To the knife inside your back

The last time we speak is the first time I see
So your part is to hang won't you do that for me?
Your wife sealed her fate when she brought you to me
Your part is to hang won't you do that for me?

If your wish is my command with me to Hell this place be damned

You can't trust your own reflection
You can't shake away the past
The only way that you'll find clarity
Is by dancing in the ash
And if you ever thought
That you had even stood a chance
Then you paid too much attention
To the knife inside your back
