There's a shape in the shadows, there's a chill in the air
But he won't let you get rattled, you won't know that he's there
There's no way to do battle when you're caught unaware
One blink and he'll be gone, and you'll be dead in your chair
Or was he even there? Can you even prepare
For a reckoning a second into catching the glare
Of a barrel when the bullet's already in the air
Or the chemicals already have your vision impaired?
As you try to place the face of that sommelier
When you're gonna win the race but find the brakes aren't there
On a knife's edge, placed between the fumes and the flare
The last breath with a glove in your hair
He's a master of disguise, he's an artist with a knife
He will catch you by surprise, just a quack and you ignite
There's no faster a demise, were you happy with your life?
'Cause it didn't have the time left to flash before your eyes.

I can't think of anything clever.
