  • How much pain, do you need to feel
    How much shame, do you have to conceal
    There is no sunshine, just endless nights
    Nobody's there, nobody cares when you cry

    Is it my face you see?
    Do I haunt you in your sleep?
    On your hands and knees when you crawl
    Through your nightmares

    When there's no more grace
    Does your heartbeat start to race?
    Crawling everywhere in the dark
    Poisonous shadows

    How many secrets, do you keep inside?
    How many sins, do you have to hide?
    The haunting masses, have blackened the sun
    You'll pay for everything you've done
    One by one

    Is it my face you see?
    Do I mock you in your sleep?
    On your hands and knees when you crawl
    Through your nightmares

    When there's no more grace
    Does your heartbeat start to race?
    Crawling everywhere in the dark
    Poisonous shadows

    Is it my face you see?
    Do I haunt you in your sleep?
    On your hands and knees when you crawl
    Through your nightmares

    When there's no more grace
    Does your heartbeat start to race?
    Crawling everywhere in the dark
    Poisonous shadows

    Is it my face you see?
    Do I haunt you in your sleep?
    On your hands and knees when you crawl
    Through your nightmares
    When there's no more grace
    Does your heartbeat start to race?
    Crawling everywhere in the dark
    Poisonous shadows
    (It's like I woke up and she was right there
    You know, I can almost touch her
    Although she's been gone for years now
    I can feel her
    I can feel her watching me) Writer/s: DAVE MUSTAINE, KIKO LOUREIRO
