I spent the night awake Cause I know he's chasing me I live days half asleep Then the cycle just repeats There I see him in my dreams I see his eyes stare right at me He's in the shadows, off the street Then he comes so close, so suddenly Around the corner, round the bend That's when he came in Dressed in black, ten arms he had And the claws to match, oh Is this a dream? Is this for real? I dread those nights The cold blade of steel Is this my time, is this mine? I dread those long and lost lonely nights And in the darkness I see his red eyes gleam He's in the shadows stalking me He could hear the sound of my heartbeat But I'm gonna fight him this time Turn and face my demons tonight This is where I've drawn the line We decide who lives and dies Around the corner, round the bend That's when he crept in But this time I break the skin This time I don't give in, yeah! Around the corner, round the bend That's when he crept in On his throne he sits again The battle must begin, yeah Around the corner, round the bend That's when he crept in On his throne he sits again The battle must begin, yeah
