Ten – JEKYLL AND HYDE lyrics

Album: GOTHICA

The city lies braced to face the violent chill,
A shadow in the mist with a mind to kill,
So come on little honey,
Thy kingdom has come

A scream beyond the silence splits the night in two,
The first of many die amidst the twilight gloom,
So come on little honey,
You're dead, so don't run

The crimson images in my mind,
A structured chemical design,
For me not you,
Duality fuelled

The clock strikes twelve, there's no escaping,
Your heartbeat thunders, pulse is racing,
Sign beyond a doubt, time is running out,
Your cause is lost, your soul forsaken,
Defy the Holy Ghost, to unleash the beast inside,
Believe in Jekyll and Hyde

A city cast adrift becomes a ship of fear,
A suicidal maze, only nightmares here,
So come on little honey,
The hunter has won

Condemned to slit its wrists, the streets are wet with tears,
Contorted, torn apart, sweat with blood red smears,
So come on little honey,
Your life is undone

For as I snap you like a stick,
Don’t be afraid, I'll make it quick,
It’s only pain
That drives me

The clock strikes twelve, there's no escaping,
Your heartbeat thunders, pulse is racing,
Sign beyond a doubt, time is running out,
Your cause is lost, your soul forsaken,
Defy the Holy Ghost, to unleash the beast inside,
Believe in Jekyll and Hyde

Fate embraced the needle over needless pills,
To speed up the effects, to sublime the thrill,
So come on little honey,
It’s over and done

You tasted terror and over time
It owns your flesh, condones your crimes,
The king of cruel
Is nobody’s fool

The clock strikes twelve, there's no escaping,
Your heartbeat thunders, pulse is racing,
Sign beyond a doubt, time is running out,
Your cause is lost, your soul forsaken,
Defy the Holy Ghost, to unleash the beast inside,
Believe in Jekyll and Hyde
