Something Wicked This Way Comes

[Intro: Spoken]
Where the veil is torn asunder
Where the dark devours the sun
Where the Nemain feast and plunder
Something wicked this was comes

[Verse 1]
I am the whore the bleeds disease upon priapic turgor
I am the scum which seeps unseen from reason's rotting corpse
I am the fear which warps the minds of all in twisted splendour
I am the end
I am the source

[Chorus]
Seven tongues to speak the story
Seven times my will be done
Seven shades of nightmare's darkness
All your fears to me succumb
Something wicked
Something wicked
Something wicked this way
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes

[Verse 2]
I am the worm within your gut, which sucks your dwindling lifeblood
I am the fly that vomits acid on your weeping eyes
I am the beast who laughs so cruelly as I rape compassion
I am your nemesis
Your spirit's compromise

[Chorus]
Seven souls release the story
Seven crimes to blight the sun
Seven shades of nightmare's darkness
All your fears to me succumb
Something wicked
Something wicked
Something wicked this way
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes

[Bridge]
Something wicked this way comes
You can't see me, but I'm waiting in the corner of your eye
I am alive

[Verse 3]
I am the black of night, my darkened shroud shall all-encompass
I am the reaper's scythe which steals your life
I am the succubus who draws delight from devastation
I am the fallen one
It's time to pay the tithe

[Chorus]
Seven oaths to bind the story
Seven words all faith to shun
Seven shades of nightmare's darkness
All your fears to me succumb
Something wicked
Something wicked
Something wicked this way
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way
By the pricking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
