Oh, well, time to go.

The game's almost over.

And I'm afraid there's not

too many moons left.

I'm gonna let you live.

I'm just keeping

a few pieces for the memories.

I abandoned Sean once.

I won't do it again.

He will have

the best care available.

And while I Don't know why,

I will keep searching

for the clues.

Searching for the old man

Sean thinks he killed.

I owe him that much.

How are you feeling today, Sean?

Did you enjoy your visit

with Mr. Adams?

You seem nervous today.

Don't be.

Yes, I'm nervous.

Very nervous.

But why would that make me mad'?

The beat of your heart

Beating

Through your walls

I can hear your heart

Beating through

The nevermore

I can hear

Your heart beating

Beating through the walls

I can hear

Your heart beating

Beating nevermore

I hear them

Knockin' on my door

Couldn't help myself

I'm tryin' to keep

My heartbeat J7

Under control

Thought I was

doin' the right thing J7

I was hiding it

From the truth

Now I'm draggin' the room

On the wing

Of a penance

of a sight

Your eye was so evil

What other choice

Did I have

But to put it to rest

I hear Lucifer!'

Dog knocking

Inside of your eye

And now tell me again

Oh, it was

livin' me insane

it must've known

What I was hiding

It was a wildest guess

Suffering from hell

No, he'll never

Please don't fell

Tell on me, eye

Hallelujah

Yeah

I'm terrified to see

That hole

I've dug

With lies

I fake a breath

but I breathe dirt

it fills

My lungs

The truth is

Feasting on my soul

My conscious

Dies

The vicious circle

Starts to pull

And

Go down

Goad faith goes

Twist/n' down the drain

watch

It go

My life is

flowin' back at me

The truth

Escapes
