The Frightener Lyrics

Home's far behind

The dark ahead

Heed this fragile

Path we tread

Thunder and rain

Shadow and flame

The coil of the snake

Wraps around again

Frightener I call your name

Way of panic, terror's flame

When there's nowhere else to turn

No last lesson left to learn

Frightener see through my eyes

Meld my mind and digitize me

Raise me up and I with you

And through these cells, be born anew

So that the Frightener comes around again

To feast on the hearts of man

An Ouroboros brings the end

Fear the mind-killer

Arise, oh Frightener, spread your wings

Irradiate, oh serpent king

The basilisk, the gaze of death

The Neuromancer's dying breath

Frightener become as one

Primal instincts overrun

Take to air and field and stream

Bleed the borders, tear the seams

Frightener, oh tear to shreds

By fang by talon, chew and rend

Through synapses this venom flow

The kill switch pulled, the masterstroke

The guillotine, the heads will roll

The curtain call, the lights go cold

When the Frightener comes around again

To feast on the hearts of man

An Ouroboros brings the end

Fear the mind-killer

Arise, oh Frightener, spread your wings

Irradiate, oh serpent king

The basilisk, the gaze of death

The Neuromancer's dying breath
