SOMETHING WICKED lyrics

loving

hating

hoping

faking

I’ve been digging through the dirt that was left behind

I've been dredging through the mud for it

there's nothing that’s alive or dead inside

in you or in this

the crucifix in my hand's a lie

cause nothing ever kills you

I watered down the pain till the well went dry

so pray for rain

and it gnawed

rose to the top again

back like a long-lost friend

a wretch that I can't defend

oh, my god

is this where the dreamer ends?

dark where the light had been

lost at the war within

and it clawed

back in the world again

here for new revenge

an enemy I can't condemn

oh, my god

is this where the liar ends?

dark where the light had been

lost at the war within

out of myself I feel it crawling

how can I tell if this is the ending

out of myself it began evolving

I am not well, repent i'm guilty

how can I tell if the sky is falling

how can I fix what there is no mending

how can I tell if I am not well

I've lost myself

I have come undone

and all of the horses

and all of the men

won't put it back in place

or bury it where it had been

when all of the forces

have been overrun

you'll whisper, serpent tongue

what you fear you have become

something wicked this way comes

something wicked this way comes
