I'll never forget the face that killed me
It's etched into my mind
I will search on endlessly
Until I get what I must find.
You think you've got away with this
Well maybe I'll haunt you forever
You tell yourself you'll never get caught
Weren't you told to never say never?
Do you really think you can run with death?
Run faster, one day I will find you.
One day your skin will be cold like mine
And revenge will suddenly blind you.
Do your dreams keep you awake at night
With faces of bodies slain?
Do you still hold the shovel that buried us all
In the pit of empty names?
