Lyrics The Stalker

I am a hunter on the hunt looking for prey
You were the hunted.  But unwanted to my dismay,
The tables were turned with one quick glance
You told me I'm performing the dead man's dance

I am among the dancing dead
As I slumber - dancing dead
Can I stumble - dancing dead
Hear me crumble - dancing dead

I was amazed, shaken from my dream
In a cold sweat, I was overtaken it seemed
Unstable, I stumbled in a weakened stance,
I realized I’m performing the dead mans dance

I am among the dancing dead
As I slumber - dancing dead
Can I stumble - dancing dead
Hear me crumble - dancing dead

Breathing and sighing and living so dead
Bleeding and dying forgetting whats said
Screaming with silence the language unfolds
Breeding the violence the danger it holds

I am among the dancing dead
As I slumber - dancing dead
Can I stumble - dancing dead
Hear me crumble - dancing dead


I need to place a face on my enemy
To see to which one belongs all my misery
A taste of this disgrace, it's the end of me
Are my claims of disdain just or heresy?

What is fair if fair ain't fair
Who should care if God don't care
What good are tears from eyes so dry
What use are tears I ask you why

To see my place, a taste of this misery
My needs have been replaced, desires are history
So weak in my pain and so fittingly
And so now I claim my stained testimony

What is fair if fair ain't fair
Who should care if God don't care
What good are tears from eyes so dry
What use are tears I ask you why

Taste my misery, It's the end of me
Taste my misery, its my heresy

Question the message
Question yourself

Left wing right wing
Everything in between
Tastes great, less filling
No statement more revealing
Science teaches no solution
Creation's evolution
In the garden man and eve
Dealy fruit on a tree

In the end you'll finally see, yeah
And that truth will set you free yeah
(Hearing Watching Seeing Listening
Buying Reading Question the Message
Feeling Thinking Denying Hurting
Doubting Crying Question the Message)

I know you are looking for the truth,
The Truth is looking for you


Slick snake, inky leak
All of the media speak
Myspace "your space?"
Everything cyberspace
In the school another tool
Making everyone the fool
Inner doubt - silence shouts
Need to bleed to weed it out

S: Skin speaks
G: Gang speaks
K: Kale speaks

S: Don't you know your soul's all alone
G: And now you're a target
S: So close to home, this life is unknown
G: Now you're a target

S: It's cunning, deceiving,
these lies you're believing
He's hunting, He's stalking
G: He wants your soul

S: He's coming, dissenting
His passion unrelenting
His vision - unending
G: He wants your soul

G: Watch for the Stalker for the Stalker's already watching you
Watch for the Stalker for the Stalker sees everything you do

K: I'm hungry, I'm searching
It's all disconcerting
I'm hunting, we're talking
G: He wants your soul

K: It's done with pretending
I'm asking and consenting
The mission is ending
G: He wants your soul

G: Watch the stalker watching you (deep in your soul)

G: Watch for the Stalker for the Stalker's already watching you
Watch for the Stalker for the Stalker sees everything you do
All this compassion has been a distraction
And I'm trying to get it wrapped in my mind
Can I really believe You did this for me
And I was why You hung from a tree
So I feel those nails and the thorns cut deep
My soul is torn because You play for keeps

Don't waste your time I'm not worth it
Today seems fine but tomorrow might worsen
Don't waste your time I'm just not worth it
I'm sure you'll find I'm a wretched person

All this believing instead of deceiving,
I'd be lying if I said You're my kind
Can I truly secede from my misery
When the misery is what I need?
I guess I'll fail when it comes to this,
I'll try to deal with the choice I missed

Don't waste your time I'm not worth it
Today seems fine but tomorrow might worsen
Don't waste your time I'm just not worth it
I'm sure you'll find I'm a wretched person

 

Teach Me Now,
I will let you in
Open up my eyes,
Let it all begin
Show me how,
Will you be my guide
This love remains unknown,
This love's inside

So many promises,
I don't know what I should beileve in
All these questions,
I don't know that I am perceiving,
Will i understand
This could be my reality
Will I ever know
This is truth and meant for me

 

I don't want to live this life
Not the kind of life you give
You don't want to let me go
And you don't want me to live
But i don't care wahtyou want
You no longer own my soul
I don't care and you don't care
But i guess this servant's so unfaithful

Somewhere in the middle of black and white
Don't know which way to turn, it could be wrong or right
Somewhere in the middle of white and black
And this unfaithful servant's never turning back

Took a look in the mirror
Took a good look at myself
I didn't like what I looked like
And i didn't liek how i felt
Didn't have any answers
So i took a look around
I think it's clear I can't be here
So I guess this servant sounds unfaithful

Somewhere in the middle of black and white
Don't know which way to turn, it could be wrong or right
Somewhere in the middle of white and black
And this unfaithful servant's never turning back

I'm your unfaithful servant (4x)

I'm no longer what you want
You're no longer anything!  (4x)

I'm not YOUR unfaithful servant  (4x)

Somewhere in the middle of black and white
Don't know which way to turn, it could be wrong or right
Somewhere in the middle of white and black
And this unfaithful servant's never turning back


Another chance to leave the walk
Another chance to embrace the dark
Another chance to accept your scars
Another Chance to kiss the dark

Come to me, Just believe
Come to me, Just believe

I'm everything you wanted
I'm everything you want

I've got a lot riding on you
I've got a lot riding on you
I've been told to let you go
You've become a dark disease
You could cost me many souls
Yet I still believe
I've been know to make dead dance
Bring the holy to their knees
I dont' believe in circumstance
Or the hope that your Love brings

It's another chance, another chance to kiss the dark

I've got a lot riding on you
I've got a lot riding on you
I've been told to let you go
You've become a dark disease
You could cost me many souls
Yet I still believe
I've been know to make dead dance
Bring the holy to their knees
I dont' believe in circumstance
Or the hope that your Love brings

It's another chance, another chance to kiss the dark

Come to me, Just believe
Come to me, Just believe

I'm everything you wanted
I'm everything you want


I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
Who will sell their soul for something pure and true
Someone like you?

See my face every place that you walk in
Hear my voice every time you are talking
You will believe in me And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the spear and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will die for you
Beg and steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You just need me

Violate all The laws that I'm given
Throw away all the pain that you're living
You will believe in me And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I will wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd kill death for you
To be close to you
To be a part of you
Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you.

Screaming Mother, crying son, I was there FOR YOU!
Separation or temptation?  (Either way, you choose) 
Run a while, stop a while, anything you do 
Your existence, MY persistence, if you win or Lose 

I know everything about you
I know everything you do
I see everything that you see
I see everything that you will be 

On your knees, a simple plea, and you know The TRUTH 
Now you find and believe, I will walk with you  
Interpretation: emancipation -- Freedom's not abused! 
Crying Mother: Screaming Son -- I will see you through 

I am, I am the Stalker, I Am watching you 
I am, I am the Stalker, I am I AM           

I know everything about you
I know everything you do
I see everything that you see
I see everything that you will be

 

I don't like what I see
You got me down on my knees
You make me sick, you disease
You bring me pain and misery
You're a darkened stain thats blistering
You are my worst enemy
I don't know how this came to be
I don't know how, but you are me

I dont' want to kill you, I just want to see you dead
All these thoughts keep running through my head
I don't want to kill you, I just want to see you die
I must escape you, give it one more try

All i've lived has been a lie
A circumcision of my mind
An easy route don't get me far
A short term fix to a long term scar
Walking on the fires of hell
I've got to learn to die to self
No more blurs inside my head
As once again, these words are said

I dont' want to kill you, I just want to see you dead
All these thoughts keep running through my head
I don't want to kill you, I just want to see you die
I must escape you, give it one more try

Just as I am
without a single plea
but that your blood was shed for all to see
Just as I am,
and I am waiting not
to rid my soul of this coldly darkened blot
Just as I am
though I am tossed about
With all these conflicts and with all these doubts
Fighting these fears
within and without
The search is done, Oh Lamb I come, I come

As I am, I'm yours alone
As I am, I'm coming home

Just as I am,
I'm wretched, poor and blind
My sight, my wealth, my healing of my mind
Just as I am,
your love's a love unknown
It's broken down, my heart is made of stone
Just as I am,
your promise I receive
With your pardon, I'm cleansed and relieved
Now is the time to be thine, and thine alone
The search is done, Oh Lamb I'm coming home

As I am, I'm yours alone
As I am, I'm coming home
