Lycanthrope

I wake up at the end of a long, dark, lonely year
Itâ??s bringing out the worst in me
I hear your voice start breaking in fear
When the lights go down

And I still feel you looking over my shoulder
Youâ??re sinking guilt and approaching nightmare
And I know none of us will survive
Because I know everything

Alright

And my dear I need you to move a little faster
This second counts as the rest of your life
Your final word and an itchy finger
And then itâ??s taken away

And weâ??ll be beaten down without mercy or meaning
I turn my face to a careless skyline
Iâ??m searching hard for a sign from heaven
But theyâ??ve forgotten me here

You can just stop talking, I get it
I hear your silence loud and clear
I know itâ??s barely a thought but itâ??ll see us through
Iâ??m only setting you free so just let it happen
Just let it happen, no need to fear
Yeah you can just stop talking, I get it

Sex, f***, and fluorescent lighting
A hollow point on an angry bullet
Weâ??re on the teeth of a crocodile
Weâ??re in the mouth of the gun

And sometimes at night I feel Iâ??m just a broken vessel
An instrument with a darker purpose
Iâ??m at the throat of the young and the helpless
Because theyâ??ve got nothing to say

So you can just stop talking, I get it
I hear your silence loud and clear
I know itâ??s barely a thought but itâ??ll see us through
Iâ??m only setting you free so just let it happen
Just let it happen, no need to fear
Yeah you can just stop talking, I get it
