It's not just evil that stalks the american sky

But there's something that's stalking the sky oh

It's not just bad luck

It's just what can happen

I think there's a lot of good in this town

I think a lot of it's unredeemed

I think pretending that it's not around

Will bring the shadowy talons down


It's been waitin for us it's whole life 

For us to forget that look in it's eye

It's been waiting for us it's whole life 

For us to forget it's name


I think forgetting it's name and the sound

Will bring the shadowy talons down

Out of an alien silence when we're all looking down

We'll feel the stopping heartbeat of this town


It can bring greater circling hunters down 2x

If you see it as fear 

See it dead as fear

With it's wings nailed to our city gate

Banner that spells the whole name

From a city that knows what goes on


It's been waiting...
