A Lesson in Evil

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.

I try to escape from the shadows of mine

It's following me wherever I go

It's like someone is breathing behind

My own reflection has turned into my foe

I hear his voice as he speaks unto me

I am here to torment, you will never be free

You'll know the difference of pleasure and pain

If you're sunshine the I am the rain

Can you remember can you recall

You put the noose around my neck

I won't surrender until you fall

You will obey

I am from the other side

And I have come to teach you pain

I'll give a lesson in evil

From the evil side

You're the ocean that I have to drain

And I have come here to reign

It makes this noise that will never stop

I will be strong and never give it up

My shadow drag me like a magner field

There is no return the maze has been sealed

Can you remember can you recall

You said it would be such an innocent game

You're the offender, and now you crawl

And you obey!

I wonder where we're going

We're gettin' closer to the hill

And the forest of the nightmares

Will we do the same again?

Will he see me hanging just like the way he did

And will he see me end my life

Just the way I ended his?

Hide and seek of life and death

Now it's my turn to see you gasp for your last breath

My friend!

There is this noise in my head

That forces me to do things I do not want to

I hear him say:

I want your body dead

So that I can be reborn, it's my turn to live now

I have been here in this place

that turns hell into heaven for too long now

I will have access to your mind

And I'll get what I want!
