The Girl With 1000 Faces

They 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
