    Lyrics »

sneaking, creeping, i'm hiding in the shadows of life
ruthless, truthless, like a hungry hyena i steal to deny
sooner or later i might pay you a call
and while you are sleeping i'll be climbing your wall
in the darkest dreams you'll see me in your eye
you won't know who i am in my bare faced disguise
devious, mischievous, the only way to go on the street
ungrateful, i'm hateful, i'll take the shirt off you back and those shiny boots from your feet
sooner or later i might pay you a call
and while you are sleeping i'll be climbing your wall
don't ever drop your guard when you think it's okay
i'll leave you my calling card when i've been down your way
breaking, taking, i'm up at your window frame
it's open, i'm in there, by the time i have finished you would wish you'd have taken more care
sooner or later i might pay you a call
and while you are sleeping i'll be climbing your wall
i am the curse of ages, i'm at a loss alone
until the end of time i will be doing you wrong
sneaking, creeping
lying, cheating
hiding, the shadows of life
truthless, ruthless, the shadows of life
sneaking, creeping, the shadows of life
lying, cheating
hiding
truthless, ruthless
