I Will Avenge You
Darkness is a hungry dog that follows me
Eternally howling, begging for a bone
Apathy's the only remedy
'Cause misery's craves company and I rather be alone
You were a light in the alley
But you were a little unlucky
Doing the best that you think I do
You had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
Humanity is a blind girl in the alley
The bastard who took everything just because he could
Decency is the thug who saved a stranger
Even in the face of danger, he chose to do some good
You were a light in the alley
You came for me when I couldn't see
Fighting in the dark, the best way that I knew
And you had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge-
When they took your life it pulled the fight right out of me
Who knew I had it in me to care about anything at all?
An eye for an eye, fighting tooth and nail
Trust nobody
Trust nobody
Justice is a thirsty ghost devouring me
Satisfied only by the righting of what went wrong
Sympathy does nothing for me
'Cause it won't get you back to me, but I'm gonna bring you home
You are a light in the alley
Unveiling my unraveling
Alone in the dark, afraid of what I might do
You had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge
Eternally howling, begging for a bone
Apathy's the only remedy
'Cause misery's craves company and I rather be alone
You were a light in the alley
But you were a little unlucky
Doing the best that you think I do
You had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
Humanity is a blind girl in the alley
The bastard who took everything just because he could
Decency is the thug who saved a stranger
Even in the face of danger, he chose to do some good
You were a light in the alley
You came for me when I couldn't see
Fighting in the dark, the best way that I knew
And you had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge-
When they took your life it pulled the fight right out of me
Who knew I had it in me to care about anything at all?
An eye for an eye, fighting tooth and nail
Trust nobody
Trust nobody
Justice is a thirsty ghost devouring me
Satisfied only by the righting of what went wrong
Sympathy does nothing for me
'Cause it won't get you back to me, but I'm gonna bring you home
You are a light in the alley
Unveiling my unraveling
Alone in the dark, afraid of what I might do
You had the nerve to save me
'Cause you saw a little good in me
So now, I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge you
I will avenge
