lyrics

She rapidly moves on
Walks in the lanterns' shine
As if she's being followed
She nervously looks back from time to time
No, we will never know
Why she decides to run
She listens to the dark street
To realize the chase has just begun
And the story continues

He has spotted her
Watched her for a while
He takes a silent breath
Astonished at her desperate denial
To stay and face what she
So thoughtlessly has done
The reason why they sent him
To release the safety of his gun
And the story continues

He's in pursuit of you
He will get you soon
And I think there'll be no mercy for your deeds
You don't know his name
But certainly his aim
And your heart won't be the only part that bleeds

She slowly turns around
Although it's hard to dare
She doesn't know this man
But feels the icy coldness in his stare
They stand face to face
Her eyes do not say "Why?"
She's ready to give in
But at the same time not ready to die
And the story continues

A sudden shot, it rips
The air without a sound
Her last groan can be heard
In slow motion, her body hits the ground
Before they lose their light
Her eyes are open wide
And the guy with the black suit
Turns around and vanishes in the night
Seems like the story is over

Don't be frightened now
It was just a story
But I thought a happy end
Might be a little boring
So I told you this dark tale
Of how people try hard and fail
And if you're going out tonight
You better watch your back
