Wasn't all that long ago you were in my mind I was standing on the edge of another time You were running I was waiting for you to rescue me that day There I was on the edge didn't know I was your prey Wasn't all that long ago Life was so unkind I was living in a haze lost somewhere in time I was cryin out for mercy hoping that you'd hear my cries But you were lurking in the dark ready with malignant lies Recalling skin is crawling Your venom all befallen Misfortune led to sorrow Almost were no tomorrows Affliction your intention All under false pretension Disaster overwhelming The heart in flight compelling Begging me to set it free Set me free Wasn't all that long ago you were in my mind Making sure my up was down Keeping me maligned I believed that you were trying until I saw your empty eyes All that evil acrimony A hidden wolf in sheep's disguise Recalling skin is crawling Your venom all befallen Misfortune led to sorrow Almost were no tomorrows Affliction your intention All under false pretension Disaster overwhelming The heart in flight compelling Begging me to set it free Set me free Recalling skin is crawling Your venom all befallen Misfortune led to sorrow Almost were no tomorrows Affliction your intention All under false pretension Disaster overwhelming The heart in flight compelling Begging me to set it free Set me free
