Lyrics
The Wicked One
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Made your bed in darkness with your eyes wide shut
A million fact omissions and a sneering trust
You say it’s easy
Do you feel safe?
They turn violent and you cave
Secrets steal the fire, so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one
Your life is hollow and so is your head
We are ready to rise again
You’re a victim, the greatest con
Time is a weapon because you’re gone
Secrets steal the fire, so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one
This torment drains the righteous, and it lives to sing in silence
Secrets steal the fire, so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one
