B-B-B-Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark

Can't be sure when they've hit their mark

And besides in the mean, mean time

I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart

Emily was running. She knew something was following her through the filled streets of Washington D.C. She turned a street corner using the sign as leverage to keep her going in the right direction. Her phone buzzed in her pocket, but she ignored it, not wanting to stop for any reason. Her blonde hair streamed out behind her, and her face was covered in beads of sweat. She reached down into her pocket to try and grab her phone to call for help, but a black tentacle came too close for comfort, and she had to speed up.

I'm in the de-details with the devil

So now the world can never get me on my level

I just gotta get you off the cage

I'm a young lover's rage

Gonna need a spark to ignite

The lights of the capitol building shone in stark relief to the dead black sky. Tourists stopped to take a picture, but were shoved to the side as Emily ran through the crowd. Thankful that she had left her vest in her apartment, she skid around a corner and continued running. The security guards knew her by name, they always had, and glanced up as she came bolting towards the now closed gate to the White House. One chuckled slightly and waved as Emily skid to a stop.

"Practicing for a marathon, Agent?" He asked. Emily smiled.

"I wish it were just that." Emily replied. "Please open the gate?"

The guard shook his head. "I thought you knew the…other way in." Emily nodded.

"Ok." The guard moved aside and Emily went into the guard building and into the secret entrance.

All the writers keep writing what they write

Somewhere another pretty vein just dies

I've got the scars from tomorrow and I wish you could see

That you're the antidote to everything except for me, me

A constellation of tears on your lashes

Burn everything you love, then burn the ashes

In the end everything collides

My childhood spat back out the monster that you see

The guard turned back around to see a tall man with no face staring back at him.

It was the last thing he saw….
