11. To Be Scared by an Owl (4:10)
Look at the sky as the night descends
The rain is crashing down, Ive hit another dead end
Just before I let hope slip away
A shadow is revealed, the devil shows his face

Im scared to death and have myself to blame, Im to blame
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, I used to search the sky and dream of where you were
I need you by my side, we can end this together
I know I promised you the world and still I let you down
I need you by my side and together well end this now

Look in my eyes! am I shaking now?
I am all you fear, have I made myself clear?

Shut your mouth and finish what youve started
Boy, you haven't got the slightest idea
Just who I am and what I do for you
Dont you see that I am trying to save you?
Shut your mouth and finish what youve started

Im scared to death and have myself to blame, no one else
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, I used to search the sky and dream of where you were
I need you by my side, we can end this together
I know I promised you the world and still I let you down
I need you by my side and together well end this now

As the last rays of sunlight fade, one killer chases another
Through the tangled madness of the city
A flash of steel announces the presence of his quarry
The stage is set, the night explodes...

You killed her you murderer
You have stripped me of the one that I love
Annabel, our annabel
You have no clue what shes capable of...

Im scared to death and have myself to blame
How did we end up fighting anyway?

You know, I used to search the sky and dream of where you were
I need you by my side, we can end this together
I know I promised you the world and still I let you down
I need you by my side and together well end this now

Youd better look behind you...

Her youthful flesh color had drained from her much like the very blood from her veins upon the bedding in which she lied. Such a fowl image for one to withhold. In some twisted way it only seemed to enhance her exquisite beauty, like a lily on a grave. I have failed. Once again I have let her down. My poor, sweet Annabel. You trusted in me; you gave me your love, your soul. Now I fall to my knees in front of the man that took you from me. I fall pathetic, defeated. I will be with you again so soon, my love, so very soon. Eyes of an angel await me and I'll be damned, nothing's going to stop me now...

Sweetheart, darling
Turn around, follow my voice
Everything's going to be okay, my love
Everything will be fine
It's all over now
