  • The fire dies on its own, leaving us to ourselves but not exactly alone
    I think that something is out there waiting, anticipation has grown
    The air as black as can be, can't even see that my hand is in front of me
    I'm overhearing a whisper, "They won't escape until the blood is set free"

    So turn back, the silence is deafening
    Turn back, don't let them see you again
    They make the rounds at the midnight hour
    And on the clock it's just a minute away

    So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
    And the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease

    Now I'm finding my friends, Hanging from trees, made a bed of a barbed wire fence
    I'm on the loose with my neck in the noose but hey, I enjoy the intense

    So turn back, the silence is deafening
    Turn back, don't let them see you again
    They make the rounds at the midnight hour
    And on the clock it's just a minute away

    So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
    When the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease

    No experience could ever match the sight of when is a person is through
    If it's the last thing I will do, I'll be the one that will escape from Hellview
    And I will

    So turn back, the silence is deafening
    Turn back, don't let them see you again
    They make the rounds at the midnight hour
    And on the clock it's just a minute away

    So turn back, the silence is deafening
    Turn back, don't let them see you again
    They make the rounds at the midnight hour
    And on the clock it's just a minute away

    So we're hours awake and our only mistake is we bleed
    When the hunger for the living helps them hunt it with the greatest of ease

    No experience could ever match the sight of when is a person is through
    If it's the last thing I will do, I'll be the one that will escape from Hellview
    And I will Writer/s: Chad Ginsburg, Deron Miller, Jess Margera

  • Buddy from Sb, NjJust one question to everybody here: Does anyone want to take a vacation down to Hellview with me this summer? It's not this Hellview, a different one. Although, the population IS 96......
  • Cvas from Ridgefield, CtKinda a creepy song, but has some very deep lyrics in it. Really makes your blood run cold at times.
  • Billy from Otway, OhThis was in Resident Evil Apocalypse
