Before U Scream

[Verse 1] I hear your heartbeat through the wire You hide your fear behind your fire You wear that mask like borrowed skin You think tonight you’re gonna win I traced your footsteps through the dark I know the weakness in your heart You built your kingdom out of lies Now watch it crumble in my eyes [Pre-Chorus] One step closer—feel the heat One step closer—don’t retreat No more shadows left to keep No more secrets buried deep [Chorus] Before U scream Look me in the eyes No more masks between us No more alibis Before U scream Say it like you mean it Hunter meets the hunted now And neither one can leave it [Verse 2] You made a weapon from my pain You fed the fury in my veins I gave you fear, I gave you scars Now I’m the ghost inside your walls You thought I’d break beneath your game But I survived and learned your name Every trap you set for me Becomes your final memory [Pre-Chorus 2] Hear the floorboards start to groan Feel the hunter lose control This house remembers every cry Tonight it watches one of us die [Chorus] Before U scream Look me in the eyes No more masks between us No more alibis Before U scream Say it like you mean it Hunter meets the hunted now And neither one can leave it [Bridge – Tight Call-and-Response Style] You were always part of this I was never yours to kill I can end this with one twist Then come finish what you will No more running No more hiding No more silence Left inside me [Final Chorus] Before U scream There’s nowhere left to hide The mask is cracked and bleeding now The truth is still alive Before U scream Hear the ending ringing When the hunter falls tonight The last voice left is screaming
