I saw a shadow come a stealing It followed me down the hall It watches me from the ceiling It waits upon the walls I don't know when it's coming I don't know when to fear I only know when it whispers I'll always be right here It's got a wicked vocabulary It knows just what to say It says boy you know you better be wary I'm coming for you night and day Oh I'm ready for you in the morning I'm ready for you in the dark You'll never have any warning You're the tinder and I'm the spark And I feel it coming on I know it when he's free I can see it in her eyes She knows when he becomes me I can fight it tooth and nail But we know he will prevail There's a darkness in the light Gotta wrestle with it every night Erebus, Erebus Feels so obscene when you f*ck with us Erebus, Erebus Burn it all down til we're smoke and dust I struggle to the surface Deep waters look so calm Try not to feel so worthless It'll pass there will be no harm Waiting with quiet dread While demons sing in my head Destroyer, you know who I am I am Erebus, and you're just a man And I feel it coming on I know it when he's free I can see it in her eyes She knows when he becomes me I can fight it tooth and nail But we know he will prevail There's a darkness in the light Gotta wrestle with it every night Erebus, Erebus Feels so obscene when you f*ck with us Erebus, Erebus Burn it all down til we're smoke and dust On the outside, on the inside When he's inside, I'm on the outside He says I know you tried but my jaws are wide And you can't flee Erebus And I feel it coming on I know it when he's free I can see it in her eyes She knows when he becomes me I can fight it tooth and nail But we know he will prevail There's a darkness in the light Gotta wrestle with it every night And I feel it coming on I know it when he's free I can see it in her eyes She knows when he becomes me I can fight it tooth and nail But he always prevails There's a darkness in the light I gotta wrestle with it every night Erebus, Erebus Feels so obscene when you f*ck with us Erebus, Erebus Burn it all down til we're smoke and dust
