The Wicked One

(album: The Phantom Tomorrow - 2021)

Made your bed in darkness with your eyes wide shut
A million fact omissions and a sneering trust
You say "it's easy"
Do you feel safe? They turn violent and you cave

Secrets steal the fire so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are The Wicked One

Your life is hollow and so is your head
We are ready to rise again
You're a victim the greatest con
Time is a weapon because you're gone

Secrets steal the fire so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are The Wicked One

This torment drains the righteous and it lives to sing in silence

Secrets steal the fire so burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires in words that cannot be seen
You are The Wicked One
