"The Wraith" lyrics

The Sixth
The Sixth
The Sixth
The Sixth

Always uninvited! Fuck off! Unrespected
Sometimes he creeps, other times he's expected
He hangs out in bad neighborhoods up at the park
He will strike in broad daylight but prefers the dark
Three little kids caught inside a burning home
He'll just sit there and wait for 'em, leave 'em alone!
As sure as we're alive today and death is inevitable
He's waitin' there watchin' through the eyes of a crow

Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (Nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Take his hand)
Step to the other side
Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (And it's nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Take his hand)
Step to the other side

Freeway intersections when the bars close, he love 'em
Blew out traffic lights, he hovers above 'em
And he loves the motherfuck outta crackheads and heroin
Rehab centers and caring mothers always scaring him
Sharing them needles? He encourages it! Raw sex?
They got him workin' and steady collectin' soul checks
Then again, (What?) nine times outta ten, I wish he'd take me
Instead of some of these poor children we see (I'm saying)

Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (Nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Nothing to fear)
Step to the other side
Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (Nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Nothing to fear)
Step to the other side

He remains nameless, but we call him the Wraith
He is the 6th Jokers Card of the Dark Carnival faith
That's it, now your clock is tickin', every second counts
And everything you do that righteous or wrong, it all amounts
And whether you going to heaven or hell, he doesn't care
He's only here to give you the death touch and send you there
Most people fear him because they don't understand
That once he finally touches you with death eternity can begin

Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (Nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Nothing to fear)
Step to the other side
Death is always at a shitty time (Nowhere to run)
Don't bother trying to run and hide (Nowhere to hide)
Take his hand cross to the other side (Nothing to fear)
Step to the other side

Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide (Step to the other side)
Nothing to fear (Take his hand cross to the other side)
Step to the other side
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to hide (Step to the other side)
Nothing to fear (Take his hand cross to the other side)
Step to the other side
