Critter

[Verse 1] In the silence of the night A creature stirs to life Born from the ashes of a war In a world devoid of strife Its heart beats with a heavy pace In a world that's lost its grace A soul that's seen too much In a place that's had enough The city sleeps, but it won't rest Beneath a sky of shattered glass A shadowy figure wanders on In search of a world that's gone [Chorus] Cry out, let your pain be heard In a world that's lost its word Shattered dreams, shattered lives In a world that's full of strife The ground beneath is trembling As the creature starts to howl A sound that pierces through the night Like a wolf that's lost its soul [Verse 2] In the ruins of the old world A new one starts to form From the ashes of the past A future that's yet to storm The creature roars, a warning loud To those who would ignore The pain of a broken world That's left them feeling poor [Chorus] Cry out, let your pain be heard In a world that's lost its word Shattered dreams, shattered lives In a world that's full of strife The ground beneath is trembling As the creature starts to howl A sound that pierces through the night Like a wolf that's lost its soul [Bridge] In the heart of the storm A light begins to shine A beacon of hope in the dark A sign that we're not blind [Outro] The creature fades into the night Leaving behind a trail of light A symbol of the world we've lost And the one we're yet to see In the silence of the night A creature stirs to life A new beginning in the ashes Of a world that's had its strife.
