Warpaint

Unending, desolate
It lurks in the nothingness
In the dark I whisper
Knowing that it listens
And from the void it speaks

"Run and don't look back"
"Run and don't look back"

Stay close to the fire
Steady your breath and aim
Ready your war paint
Just keep your eyes open
And try to stay awake
Ready your war paint
Go

Starve the revenant
Scorched Earth to cover up the tracks
In the dark I scream
Knowing that it hears me
"I am not afraid"
"Come and look me in my fucking face, liar"

Stay close to the fire
Steady your breath and aim
Ready your war paint
Just keep your eyes open
And try to stay awake
Ready your war paint

I refuse to snuff my light
I refuse to run and hide
I won't let it drag me off into the night
No, not without a fight
Not without a fight
Not without a fight
Ready your war paint

Ready your war paint
