Sly Face

In the greenest flame
Back from the grave, we don't speak his name
Macabre in nature, the whole team's cloaked in danger
Gathered at the cabaret
Hanging off every word he say
The sky turns from blue into shades of grey
Tongue stay sharp as a blade, if you dare stand in his way
It's auf wiedersehen

Power trip, but the pace jack rabbit
Chasing the missing piece but can't have it
Fragile, separate life into fragments
Master, your madness is unpragmatic
A face that is framed by glasses
Binding them both with strings of black magic
Prophecy bears down like he's Atlas
Story's great but the ending is tragic

I feel it come to take
The space behind my eyes
I think it's much too late
The devil in disguise

Sly face soul killer
Sly face soul killer
Don't let him occupy your mind
Sly face soul killer
He comes alive
With the palest skin
Comes at a cost that he's paid to win
Down with the rebels, their war cries push the treble
As the bass comes fading in
Depraved with a noxious grin
Spews some dark phrases in oxygen
He's keen to enslave, come all to the black parade
And he'll graciously box you in

A blight that'll hide in the mist
The worst kind that he try to enlist or ice out
See a python rocking slithery kicks
Don't fight, if you try to resist, get wiped out
Fistfight with a sickening twist
Night night with a flick of the wrist, it's lights out
Mike Tyson got nothing on this, forked tongue and he talk with a lisp
Now let me hear you sing

I feel it come to take
The space behind my eyes
I think it's much too late
The devil in disguise

Sly face soul killer
Sly face soul killer
Don't let him occupy your mind
Sly face soul killer
Look out, look out, look out, look out

Sly face soul killer
Don't let him occupy your mind
Sly face soul killer
He comes alive
