Deep In The Night Lyrics

DEEP IN THE NIGHT AMONG SHADOWS I GLIDE
THOUGH I FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT
IN THE DARKNESS I HIDE
I DROP FROM A TREE AS THEY
RIDE THROUGH A GLADE
LUNGING AND LEAPING
AVOIDING THEIR BLADE

BULLETS FLY
BARELY MISSING MY HEAD
OF THE FOUR I ATTACK
TWO ARE WOUNDED ONE DEAD

AND I TRY NOT TO THINK
HOW HIS FAMILY WILL FEEL
WHEN THEY HEAR THAT HE DIED
FROM A TASTE OF MY STEEL
SO I HIDE IN A CLOAK
OF THE INDIGO NIGHT
I'VE SETTLED ONE SCORE
IN THE BATTLE I FIGHT

NIGHTS FULL OF DANGER
ALL HAVE TANKEN THEIR TOLL
COLD LONELY BUT STILL I
CAN'T LOSE SIGHT OF MY GOAL

SO I SLINK LIKE A FOX
THAT'S PURSUED BY THE PACK
WHEN THEY'RE OFF THEIR GUARD
THAT IS WHEN I ATTACK

FAR FROM THE CRY
OF THE BATTLE AND BLADE
I SEEK PEOPLE OUT
THAT THEY HURT AND DEGRADE

AND I WEEP WHEN I SEE
HOW GREED'S TAKEN ITS TOLL
GIVE THEM FOOD FOR THEIR HUNGER
AND HOPE FOR THEIR SOUL
I FADE INTO THE NIGHT
AND I DOFF MY DISGUISE
AND ASSUME THE DEMEANOR
OF ONE I DISPISE

AND I WAIT THROUGH THE DAY
LIKE A FOX IN HIS DEN
WAITING FOR NIGHT
TO STRIKE ONCE AGAIN
