I know what you are, I know why you came 
I don't care what you say, we are not the same 
Razors in your eyes, spiders in your spine 
I know what you are, I know why you're mine 

Tell them who you are, tell them why you're here 
Tell them where you go when you disappear 
A part of you has died you cannot regain 
I know what you are, I know why you came 

And this is where it ends 
This is where it ends 

The scavenger breathes 
She only needed somewhere to go 
The dark turns time to stone 
The hope in the gloam 
The past is just a ghost following the tracks in the snow 
To one darksome grove 
You've gone too far 
Tell them what you are 
Tell them what you are 

Pick up what you can, gather everyone 
The faces of the creatures we live among 
Every twisted heart in its crooked frame 
Won't forget her face, won't forget her name 

Tell them who we are, tell them why we're here 
Show them where they'll go when they disappear 
Parts of us will die but we'll rearrange 
The fear is the same but the motive's changed 

And this is where it ends 
This is where it ends 

The scavenger breathes 
She only needed somewhere to go 
A place to atone 
The dark turns blood to stone 
The past is just a vampire following the tracks in the snow 
To some darkling grove 
You've gone too far 
Tell them what you are 
Tell them what you are 

The scavenger breathes 
She only needed somewhere to go 
The dark turns life to stone 
The peaceful alone 
The past is just a coward running from the blood in the snow 
To some darkling grove 
You've gone too far 
Tell them what you are 
Tell them what you are 

The scavenger breathes 
She only needed somewhere to go 
The dark turns life to stone 
So close to her home 
A shadow in the dark, a hand across our mouths and our hearts 
The wound leaves a scar 
You've gone too far 
Tell them what you are 
Tell them what you are
