Knife and Spear

[04:09.00]Her name was Akira, and she was the best

[04:09.00]At sticking pins and needles and bleeding out the flesh

[04:09.00]Of people, that, annoyed her the most

[04:09.00]In the shadow of the mountain, she was but a ghost

[04:09.00]She haunted all the village folk, they stayed in the light

[04:09.00]Shielding themselves in their cabins at night

[04:09.00]Their doors barricaded, windows shaded, ever doomed

[04:09.00]Cattle for the slaughter, waiting in their rooms

[04:09.00]She broke in a cellar, and drank all the wine

[04:09.00]And awoke to find she hadn’t been alone that night

[04:09.00]Embarrassed, Her money and blade were gone

[04:09.00]Pissed off and angry, she knew who’d done her wrong

[04:09.00]Hold me near

[04:09.00]All I wanted was your love my dear

[04:09.00]I would call for you, but you weren’t there

[04:09.00]Now I hunt you with my knife and spear

[04:09.00]He sits in the darkness, robe across his chest

[04:09.00]A smile laced with arrogance, chain on his breast

[04:09.00]It glimmers in the moonlight, disappeared when silence broke

[04:09.00]Barely seeing through the haze of cigarette smoke

[04:09.00]Ice in his tumbler, swirling in his hand

[04:09.00]Shifts in his position and turns to face the man

[04:09.00]Who caught his attention when he felt his presence

[04:09.00]A scent so familiar, a sweet vanilla essence

[04:09.00]When the man spoke, he had a beautiful tone

[04:09.00]Softly on the consonants and rounded on the o’s

[04:09.00]The figure, moved, under the light

[04:09.00]Then did he see it was Akira that night

[04:09.00]And she sliced him to pieces with a knife

[04:09.00]Hold me near

[04:09.00]All I wanted was your love my dear

[04:09.00]I would call for you, but you weren’t there

[04:09.00]Now I hunt you with my knife and spear
