The Reaper's Shadow
by Unknown
Lyrics
(Intro)
Alone in the dark.
No light.
(Chorus)
Call me the Reaper, walking all alone in the dark
Wearing all black, leaving nothing but a permanent mark
No family, no friends, just the demons in my head
Surrounded by the shadows, trading life for the dead
Heavy footsteps falling, feel the weight in my veins
Lost in the pavement, trying to erase all the pains
I am completely different, I am casting my spell
A phantom of sorrow living deep inside of hell
(Verse 1)
Look into the mirror but there’s nobody there
Just a dark silhouette with a cold-blooded stare
Cut ties with the world, yeah, I burnt every bridge
Now the shadows are rising on the edge of the ridge
No companion in sight, never had a safe home
Just a phantom in darkness left to wander alone
The night is calling, it tells me it’s time
To embrace all the silence, to commit to the climb
Got the vision locked in when they cross over the line
(Pre-Chorus)
They thought it was normal, they thought it would fade
But the darkness took over in the plot that was laid
Now I step through the fog where the ghosts like to play
And I watch all the light start to wither away
(Chorus)
Call me the Reaper, walking all alone in the dark
Wearing all black, leaving nothing but a permanent mark
No family, no friends, just the demons in my head
Surrounded by the shadows, trading life for the dead
Heavy footsteps falling, feel the weight in my veins
Lost in the pavement, trying to erase all the pains
I am completely different, I am casting my spell
A phantom of sorrow living deep inside of hell
(Verse 2)
Walking through the fog from the walls that I hit
In a world full of fakes, I could never quite fit
They call it a phase but the shadows are real
When you’re empty inside, it's the armor of steel
I dress like a funeral every single day
Let the darkness consume me, let it take me away
With the weight of the night resting heavy on my side
There is nowhere to run and there’s nowhere to hide
(Bridge)
No calls on the line
No love in the heart
Just a permanent home where the nightmares all start
Casting a shadow that’s standing right here
The King of the Darkness, the master of fear
(Final Chorus)
Call me the Reaper, walking all alone in the dark
Wearing all black, leaving nothing but a permanent mark
No family, no friends, just the demons in my head
Surrounded by the shadows, trading life for the dead
Heavy footsteps falling, feel the weight in my veins
Lost in the pavement, trying to erase all the pains
I am completely different, I am casting my spell
A phantom of sorrow living deep inside of hell
(Outro)
Alone in the dark
Call me the Reaper
