Wicked This Way Comes

Trouble brews these wicked nights

Dark gazes pierce the facade

Hunger tells us to rip each other apart

Ravenous and devoid of heart

 

Crippled minds run this show

Beating down your soul

Chopping off your limbs

Culling out hope with a snip and trim

 

Can't catch what never leaves a trace

Demons can't walk among us

For the fate of our grubby hands

Lies within our festering palms
