I almost got in trouble at school, at sixteen
Where I almost let slip Professor Slughorn something
Who almost retired by running around
But went back to Hogwarts to get some teaching down
I almost got caught by Dumbledore
Who suspected me for a long time before
And I almost killed you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
I almost wish I could've killed you too.
I almost got killed by Harry Potter
Who then got that lightning bolt scar
Cause I almost had you dead forever
But the curse got reflected because of her
I almost had you like Cedric, but then you ran away
And I wish that stupid wand thing would've just gone away
And I almost killed you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And Dumbledore didn't even know it
You kept me guessin' and now I'm destined
To spend my time hunting you
I almost wish I could've killed you too
Here I go, thinking 'bout all the things I could've done
I'm gonna need my Death Eaters, so that I can have it won
(I can have it won)
I know I've looked so hard but killing you is number one
I almost forgot to say something else
And if I can't fit it in, I'll keep it all to myself
I almost found a way to kill you today
But then I lost my attention and the idea flew away
And I almost killed you
But I guess that doesn't cut it
Almost had you
And Dumbledore didn't even know it
You kept me guessin' and now I'm destined
To spend my time hunting you
And I almost killed you (almost killed you)
Almost killed you
I almost wish I could've killed you too (wish I could've killed you too)
