06. the reaper's song

"you can't run,
you can't hide,
because the hounds
are coming out tonight."

she's singing
and singing
and singing some more.

but you can't block out
her melodic song,
you've never heard 
such an enticing voice before,

"i let them loose,
they're running out of the fire,
and you know damn well
your time has expired.

you're going to hell
with me,
t o n i g h t.

i've been hunting you,
watching you,
seeing you in the dark.

i know what you're scared of,
and here the dogs are,
in your ear
they bark;
they bark so loud,
and you can't escape the sound,
because tonight
is the night,
you go straight to hell."

she's laughing with her song
and your ears start to ring,
looking back was the biggest mistake
you could've ever made.

but you
did it
anyway.
