Lyrics:

I'm a fly on flypaper

You're the rain on the web

Resurrected by demons

All shouting in my head

It's the lifeboat of sanity

A beacon in the dark

Let all hell's fury

Play the rhythm of your heart

It's the sound of terror

It's the sound of terror

It sleeps with the fear

All burrowing under your bed

Waiting for a signal

To bring this nightmare to and end

It's an affair of honor

Taken too far

Let's burn down Saint Peter's

And drive a stake through its heart

It's the sound of terror

It's the sound of terror

so thats it!!!

Enjoy- Dan Steadman
