Lyrics
The Thing
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.
Who can you trust among all that you know?
Feeling betrayed, and you're feeling alone
Hiding in shadows, conceiled in the gloom
There in the darkness, awaiting the doom
Oh, I'm waiting, hiding alone, darkness betrays
No, they call in the night
Black as a shadow, it burns through your heart
It's a thing, it lives inside your mind
A thing, yes it lives, it breathes, it crawls
Take your mind
Icy fingers touch your spine
Oh, Can you live?
If you think that you can
Run for your life
Yes the thing, it lives, the thing
Oh, do you know what it is?
Quick, burn it tonight
