Tread lightly through the shadows Out of sight from your God's eyes In the city we walk for days The mission of life's most awkward lull Dodge the sun for the light is wasted Searching for the criminal who stole your heart Scour the dark while hunting the scum The vile scent burns the air we breathe He has what is mine, and I need it back Taken without warning from the wounded one Without permission makes you a thief And your punishment will be bold Dodge the sun for the light is wasted Searching for the criminal who stole your heart Scour the dark while hunting the scum The vile scent burns the air we breathe I live in animus to tear your world apart I breathe the hate and my hate is pure I'm hunting you down, that you can be certain of And when I find you, may your God have mercy on your soul The distance I travel, so far and so vast My blood leaves this trail to find my way back The flesh turns white for color is lost This body is weak and slowly drying out I will not hesitate when the time is before me To strike the heart of the beast who dwells Extinguish the life of that selfish sin And carry your heart home in a golden case Here I live in animus to tear your world apart I breathe the hate and my hate is pure I'm hunting you down, that you can be certain of And when I find you, may your God have mercy on your soul
