I was afraid, I lost them
All the times that I would waste away
Calling out their names, but no one came

But I kept waiting
Barely holding on
My world's been fading out

I watch the people pay the price
To keep them in a vice
I see it day and night
We're just the cost

So you can't tell me what you are
I can see right through
No hiding those scars
I'm not waiting

Underground and city streets are
Plagued by curses born beneath
The minds that turn to devil's teeth
With cards to cheat under their sleeves

I've watched the rise, I've seen the fall
I've witnessed leaders lose control
I've walked away to search for answers
In the dark, the night grew faster

The people pay the price
To keep them in a vice
I see it day and night
We're just the cost

So you can't tell me what you are
I can see right through
No hiding those scars
I'm not waiting
So you can't tell me what you are
I can see right through
No hiding those scars
I'm not waiting

I'll be watching, waiting in the dark
I will strike the fear into their hearts
Not a face to blame
But they will know the name

Let them rot inside a cell with broken bones
Be the first to cast the final stone
Reclaim
What you've stained

I'll be watching, waiting in the dark
I will strike the fear into their hearts
Not a face to blame
But they will know the name

Let them rot inside a cell with broken bones
Be the first to cast the final stone
Reclaim
What you've stained

So you can't tell me what you are
I can see right through
No hiding those scars
I'm not waiting
