[Verse 1]
I wear the night like skin
Mouth full of broken grin
Your front door shakes again
I’m in your breath, your den
Cold blade under my coat
Names carved deep in the smoke
You freeze when the floorboards moan
I feed on fear alone
[Pre-Chorus]
Run if you can
Hide if you want
I’m right behind
I’m at your front
No mercy here
No prayer, no plea
You hear that step?
That’s me
[Chorus]
I am the mask
I am the cut
Say my name
Then shut it up
I am the blade
I’m coming fast
When I get close
You scream at last
(you scream at last)
(you scream at last)
[Verse 2]
The phone keeps ringing out
Your hands won’t hold it now
A shadow leans in the hall
You know I heard you call
One small breath, then dread
One wrong turn, then red
You lock the frame and pray
I don’t walk in today
[Pre-Chorus]
Run if you can
Hide if you want
I’m right behind
I’m at your front
No mercy here
No prayer, no plea
You hear that step?
That’s me
[Chorus]
I am the mask
I am the cut
Say my name
Then shut it up
I am the blade
I’m coming fast
When I get close
You scream at last
(you scream at last)
(you scream at last)
[Bridge]
Hear that glass?
Hear that sigh?
You can’t outlast
What lives outside
Black-gloved hand
On your door
One more step
Then nothing more
[Final Chorus]
I am the mask
I am the cut
Say my name
Then shut it up
I am the blade
I’m coming fast
When I get close
You scream at last
I am the mask
I am the cut
I’m in your bones
I’m in your blood
I am the blade
I’m coming fast
When I get close
You scream at last
(you scream at last)
(you scream at last)
