Listen here: You Know My Name

Written and performed by Snape44, based on the song You Know My Name” performed by Chris Cornell.

When you take a life, it’s your soul that you give
Odds are, you won’t like when it splits
When the storm arrives, could you compete with me
With my infinite lies I’ve deceived

I’ve seen aurors fall from blinding heights
The boy who lived is nothing so divine
Just next in line

Arm yourself because no-one else here can save you
Your wand will betray you
And I’ll devastate you
Would you dare pay the price; would that victory thrill you
But it could kill you
Are you willing to die

And loveless blood runs through my veins
You know my name

If you run and hide, it would not be the same
But would you dare turn and fight?
If you think you’ve won
You never saw me fight
The duel that you’ve been avoiding

I’ve seen my wand best much stronger men
The boy who lived
is nothing, now my friend
You will meet your end

Arm yourself because no-one else here can save you
Your wand will betray you
And I’ll devastate you
Would you dare pay the price; would that victory thrill you
But it could kill you
Are you willing to die

And loveless blood runs through my veins

Try to fight me and
Forget how to feel
(Forget how to feel)
You’ll be gone with just a spin of the wheel
(A spin of the wheel)

Arm yourself because no-one else here can save you
Your wand will betray you
And I’ll devastate you
Would you dare pay the price; would that victory thrill you
But it could kill you
Are you willing to die

And Loveless blood runs through my veins
You know my name
(You know my name)
You know my name
(You know my name)
you know my name!
You know my name!
You know my name!
