Killer’s Heart Unmasked

Black feather driftin down

A cracked grin in the cold

Tryin hard to keep it sealed inside (hmmm)

Fur and a snarl across my jaw Still human underneath the claw

Pitch black wings that scrape the floor Standin outside your hollow door

You make a joke with blood on your hands A sarcastic rogue

in broken lands I bite my tongue before I speak Afraid of

the bruise if I show I'm weak

I learned the hard way what teeth can do

Past scars burnin when I look at you

Wanting to reach out,

scared of the strike Caught on the edge of what I like

I hide my heart from the killer's blade Afraid of the dark

and the debts I paid Dark angel wings hang heavy and torn

Loving the rogue while the old fear's born (yeah) Keep it inside,

don't let it show

You laugh it off with a twisted smirk

Watchin me flinch at the shadows at

work

Got a gold soul leakin through the seams Tryin to survive these

violent dreams You hold me close,

I hold my breath

Tangled up tight between love and death

If I let

down this guard tonight

Will you hurt me,

or hold on tight?

Old memory screams in my head

Silence is safe

where nothing's said (ahhhh)

I hide my heart from the killer's blade

Afraid of the dark and the debts I paid Dark angel wings

hang heavy and torn

Loving the rogue while the old fear's born (can't pull away) Locked

in your grip,

letting it show

Wings fold down in the quiet room

Resting beside the sweet sharp doom (hmmm)
