the shadow knows

the laugh will be the warning

he will break your mental wall

pulverize resistance

then sacrifice you all

his solemn promise given

to never be a slave

to stand among the fallen

and fight beyond the grave

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

stare into the hearts of men

all misery treachery

through secrecy mastery alchemy

perish in his fire

the wight of procreation

will never bring him down

survive humiliation

and laugh when time is gone

the powers of corruption

will shiver at his gaze

the weed of crime may blossom

but will perish in his flame

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

the shadow knows

stare into the hearts of men

all misery treachery

through secrecy mastery alchemy

perish in his fire
