lyrics

As I crept into the courtyard
The moon’s ray led my way
I chose this path of darkness
All comfort went astray
Alert: my every action
Move light, avoid detection
They don’t know that I’m here
I can’t escape the fear

I can’t escape

This is my mission for the day
My hope has simply gone away
Can you detect me in the night?
Through fields I move by candlelight

I move

A place so heavily guarded
Without a man in sight
This visionary terror
Becomes eternal fright
It’s barren as the ocean
I’ll swiftly stay in motion
I am not here to play
I’ve come to take you away

Take you away

Through vines and gates I walk
I’m moving slow
I pry apart the doors of truth so we can know
About this master plan and just what’s going on
The closer I become I sense something is wrong
It’s part unspeakable and seems unreachable
Behind this stone wall I’m unheard of as I kneel
What are these figures moving, what is all of this proving?
Should I turn back while my identity’s concealed?

They can’t detect me
They can’t detect me
They can’t detect me
I’ll use the darkness and infiltrate
