Dan Wakefield - I Know What You Are (Bonus Track) Lyrics

I know what you are, I know why you came
I don't care what you say, we are not the same
Razors in your eyes, spiders in your spine
I know what you are, I know why you're mine

Tell them who you are, tell them why you're here
Tell them where you go when you disappear
A part of you has died you cannot regain
I know what you are, I know why you came

And this is where it ends
This is where it ends

The scavenger breathes
She only needed somewhere to go
The dark turns time to stone
The hope in the gloam
The past is just a ghost following the tracks in the snow
To one darksome grove
You've gone too far
Tell them what you are
Tell them what you are

Pick up what you can, gather everyone
The faces of the creatures we live among
Every twisted heart in its crooked frame
Won't forget her face, won't forget her name

Tell them who we are, tell them why we're here
Show them where they'll go when they disappear
Parts of us will die but we'll rearrange
The fear is the same but the motive's changed

And this is where it ends
This is where it ends

The scavenger breathes
She only needed somewhere to go
A place to atone
The dark turns blood to stone
The past is just a vampire following the tracks in the snow
To some darkling grove
You've gone too far
Tell them what you are
Tell them what you are

The scavenger breathes
She only needed somewhere to go
The dark turns life to stone
The peaceful alone
The past is just a coward running from the blood in the snow
To some darkling grove
You've gone too far
Tell them what you are
Tell them what you are

The scavenger breathes
She only needed somewhere to go
The dark turns life to stone
So close to her home
A shadow in the dark, a hand across our mouths and our hearts
The wound leaves a scar
You've gone too far
Tell them what you are
Tell them what you are
