A girl screams off in the distance and the shot zooms
It passes by buildings and heads straight towards the warehouse room
She's running, her feet moving so fast it looks like she's taking flight
Something runs after her, Dark and Sinister as night
The girl is caught by her hair and dragged, but she can't see who's there
She is bound to a pillar by rope and zip ties
The Dark and Sinister is a man and he begins to rise
His belt is thrown onto the floor
And the girl, she screams even more
Dark and Sinister laughs and her eyes fill with tears
He brings out a knife, three inches wide, furthering her fears
She shakes and quivers as he brings it to her neck
She squeezes her eyes shut, thinking this will be her last breath
And hack he does, but not her throat
He cuts her cheek, long and deep
And she lets forth a pain-filled cry
Dark and Sinister laughs even more and cuts her again, just missing her eye
The man cuts her ties and lets her thrash and run away
This is the best part for him, playing predator and prey
He can see the girl's wild hair flash;
Now tangled and matted, but was perfect in the past
She flees down corners only to find dead ends
But this time that she turns around
Dark and Sinister, the man, is at the end
The girl whimpers and touches her bloody face
The man wants this, the once beautiful to become a disgrace
And sheer terror is written all over this poor girl's face
Dark and Sinister wields a bow and arrow
'Those came from thin air' is all she can get through her head, though
Before she takes an arrow to the knee
Blood spurting, mind whirling, heart thumping, blood pumping
She crumples forward and falls
And this seems to be the worst fate of them all:
She is cut wide
While she still survives
Flayed and revealed
Skin slowly peeled
While her heart still slowly beats
And she can faintly hear police cars rumbling down the streets
But not in her direction
The tears run down her face
Her body is shown
The pain is unbearable
She should be dead
She wishes she would be, she thinks in her head
Her heart is carefully exposed
All major organs intact
Dark and Sinister laughs one more time
Before he stabs her, making blood flow, and everything go black
