The Outsiders

We are the creatures of the night, we walk alone
Amidst the shadows where your nightmares are born
Our presence grows in the wake of the fire
The reflection of the flames are seen in our eyes
Who can we trust in this time of despair?
Our hands tied by fate and our thoughts are impaired
Here we stand at the mercy of the night
Through eyes that see gray to things that were white
Have you seen us?
The outsiders
You can find us lurking in the shadows on the darkest day
We’re all each other in this game of defense
We must evade the capture of those who pretend
They come with their smiles in a state of fallen grace
But look into their eyes and you’ll see it on their face
Have you seen us?
The outsiders
You can find us lurking in the shadows on the darkest day
When our eyes are closed and the lights go out
We then become vulnerable to those who seek our demise
Trashcan fires used to draw us out
They only make the shadows come to life
Black darkness
We are all content
Sharp objects
We will use them to defend
Can you see us?
The outsiders
You can find us lurking in the shadows on the darkest day
