The night was black, the moon was shining, not a sound was in the air Alone she walked into the darkness, never knowing what was there But soon she'd see that on this here night, she would meet someone so cold and bare And then she'd learn that in the darkness, there lie things that are so bare As she's getting closer to him, he begins to flick his knife Soon she'll know how it feels to be a victim as she meets, as she meets the shadow of the night Listen, a violent scream, it breaks the silence and brings her son to the ground The virgin cries, oh please God help me, for there's no one to be found Cause on this night there is no fortune, no escaping from this hell Now she knows how it feels to be a victim as she meets, as she meets the shadow of the night The shadow of the night And he's out there to get you, he's the shadow of the night As she lay there on the ground, she could feel the coldness of his morbid touch as he forced his way into her In a desperate struggle to survive, she screams out one last time into the night The shadow of the night He's the shadow of the night The shadow of the night And he's out there to get you, he's the shadow of the night The shadow of the night He's the shadow of the night And he's out there to get you, he's the shadow of the night He's the shadow of the night
