System Thought
Orphan Zero
4:31They say I move without a sound A shadow slipping through the crowd A stolen name, a fleeting trace I drift through night unseen, erased You'll swear you've seen me once before In shattered glass, behind locked doors But I dissolve like falling rain A ghost you'll chase but won't retain I'm the echo in a lover's sigh The venom kiss before your last goodbye A siren's song, a sharpened blade I pull you close, your soul betrayed I wear a thousand borrowed skins A whispered name on lips of sin A fleeting touch, a hollow vow You'll beg for more, I'll tear you down You swore you'd hold me in the light I slip like smoke into the night No chains can bind, no hands can claim I vanish like embers in the rain I'm the echo in your heart of lies The kiss that lingers, our last goodbye The sharpest edge you can't escape I pull you close then twist the blade Every face I wear turns to dust Every vow I break turns to rust I could stop, I swear I could But wolves don't beg to be understood I'm the rush that steals your breath The final kiss before your death You'll beg for mercy but none will come I am the silence when you come undone
