Stainless steel glimmers in the night
Creeping footsteps, but there's no one in sight
It's not the cold air that's chilling in your spine

Your breathing thickens and the pulse is rising high
You'd better stay in the light
And prepare for a slash in the night


Alone in the darkness, there's danger on the streets
He's sharpening his knives, you cannot retreat

'Cause he is a hunter and you are his prey
A predator out for a slay


Axes are raised high before your eyes
You're screaming for help, but no one hears your cries
Too late to realize, your life starts to fade

You find yourself under the blade

He's waiting just around the corner

Or he's a shadow behind your back
Whatever the way, each step leads closer to grave
Razorsharp spiked fist reach out for attack

You're waiting for

Chorus

A slash in the night
He kills the weak, so the strong would survive
A slash in the night

He is a psychopath and he drains you out of your life

Scream rips the silence, your cover he will find

Thought you got away, but he attacks from behind
He's swift and he's deadly, your life you can't keep
A surgical cut's running deep


Starting to bleed, he stares at your face
Ripping you alive, then he's gone with no trace

Nobody is ever safe from his bloodlust
He's turning the ashes to dust


Life is hard and then you die
You hear the chime of your passing bell
You're passed away, but you'll meet him again

He's coming to see you in hell
You're waiting for


Chorus

A slash in the night

You've got to stay out of the streets with no light
A slash in the night
He hides in darkness and he's ready to slash in the night


A slash in the night
A slash in the night

A slash in the night
A slash in the night
