The Haunted

We exist among you,
numbering few.
always acting,
right on queue.

To us,
the world's evil is no surprise.
It is shown by dark circles,
under our eyes.

Because of the permanent lack of sleep.
For knowing the secrets that we keep.
For knowing evil,
and the pain it reaps.

We carry out justice,
with our own hands.
Because we cannot sit,
and watch the failures of man.

Whether through words,
or whether through action.
We carry out justice,
because of compassion.

So demon's beware,
we're strong because we care.
and because we're strong,
your soul's we shall tear.

so evil,

heed these next words
and be very afraid.
because of us,
your debt will be paid.

And if you wish to flee,
listen carefully to me.

We press forward,
never daunted.
So be prepared.
we are The Haunted.
