Animus

Tread lightly through the shadows

Out of sight from your God's eyes

In the city we walk for days

The mission of life's most awkward lull

Dodge the sun for the light is wasted

Searching for the criminal who stole your heart

Scour the dark while hunting the scum

The vile scent burns the air we breathe

He has what is mine, and I need it back

Taken without warning from the wounded one

Without permission makes you a thief

And your punishment will be bold

Dodge the sun for the light is wasted

Searching for the criminal who stole your heart

Scour the dark while hunting the scum

The vile scent burns the air we breathe

I live in animus to tear your world apart

I breathe the hate and my hate is pure

I'm hunting you down, that you can be certain of

And when I find you, may your God have mercy on your soul

The distance I travel, so far and so vast

My blood leaves this trail to find my way back

The flesh turns white for color is lost

This body is weak and slowly drying out

I will not hesitate when the time is before me

To strike the heart of the beast who dwells

Extinguish the life of that selfish sin

And carry your heart home in a golden case

Here I live in animus to tear your world apart

I breathe the hate and my hate is pure

I'm hunting you down, that you can be certain of

And when I find you, may your God have mercy on your soul
