Black Veil Brides The Wicked One Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Made your bed in darkness with your eyes wide shut
A million fact omissions and a sneering trust

[Pre-Chorus]
You say “it's easy”
Do you feel safe?
They turn violent
And you cave

[Chorus]
Secrets steal the fire
So burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires
In words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one
[Verse 2]
Your life is hollow and so is your head
We are ready to rise again

[Pre-Chorus]
You're a victim – the greatest con
Time is a weapon because you're gone

[Chorus]
Secrets steal the fire
So burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires In words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires
In words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
This torment
Drains the righteous
And it lives to
Sing in silence
[Chorus]
Secrets steal the fire
So burn down all that you need
Every belief
Hiding your desires
In words that cannot be seen
Hail to the thief
When the truth becomes your demon
How can you just keep believing?
Hiding your desires
In words that cannot be seen
You are the wicked one
