[Verse 1] He moves like a stain on stone By the gate where the lost walk home Eyes on the weak, hands too clean Smile like a blade in a Sunday scene He reads your cracks, he counts your shame Then he wears your trust like a borrowed name One soft word, then the hook is set You blink too slow, you pay the debt [Pre-Chorus] Hear that tread in the hall Something cold behind the wall He waits where your guard falls down Then he circles back around [Chorus] Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there Finds your break, finds your fear Says your name, disappears Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there If you bend, he pulls you near Then he leaves you split and bare [Verse 2] He loves the bruise that nobody sees The lie in the laugh, the lock in the knees He’ll praise your wound, then twist the knife Turn your good faith into borrowed life At the feast, he smiles too wide While he studies the door you left open wide You give one inch, he takes your crown He builds his throne from a falling town [Pre-Chorus] Hear that tread in the hall Something cold behind the wall He waits where your guard falls down Then he circles back around [Chorus] Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there Finds your break, finds your fear Says your name, disappears Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there If you bend, he pulls you near Then he leaves you split and bare [Bridge] I seen that face in the water I seen that grin in the glass Every small lie he offers Turns to ash, turns to ash [Final Chorus] Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there Finds your break, finds your fear Says your name, disappears Corner snare, corner snare He’s lurking there, lurking there Hold your ground, keep him clear Let the dark come, you still stand here
