Silence slights spirits of those gone into the night
But what was the cost?
Do I justify the loss
When a loss of control would be digging myself a hole?
It couldn't be worth it
I'm a killer [x3]
But I've been killing myself all along
Had I done my best to protect innocence
Or did I lead the wolf to the fawn?
Watch your words
Keep them from bothering the herd
Provoking the stones
That they all can throw
No, I won't carry on
Living this life that I stole
It just isn't worth it
I'm a killer [x3]
But I've been killing myself all along
Divining the right from the wrong
Had I done my best to protect innocence
Or was something more wicked in store?
Is there villainy inside of me?
In search of worth
Have I burned the earth?
There's no passion in being passive
And no inaction could bring an answer
So for you, I am a killer
But what was the cost?
Do I justify the loss
When a loss of control would be digging myself a hole?
It couldn't be worth it
I'm a killer [x3]
But I've been killing myself all along
Had I done my best to protect innocence
Or did I lead the wolf to the fawn?
Watch your words
Keep them from bothering the herd
Provoking the stones
That they all can throw
No, I won't carry on
Living this life that I stole
It just isn't worth it
I'm a killer [x3]
But I've been killing myself all along
Divining the right from the wrong
Had I done my best to protect innocence
Or was something more wicked in store?
Is there villainy inside of me?

There's no passion in being passive
