Deep in the black hearted death of the night
|
Watching your every move
|
Driven by madness a voice in his head
|
Telling him what he must do
|
Watching and waiting for his chance to strike
|
Another to add to his score
|
Leaving a city to panic in fear
|
Knowing that there will be more
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Random and senseless his crimes
|
His crimes are obscene
|
Brutally skillful efficient and clean
|
It curdles your blood knowing he's near
|
Trapped in a nightmare - City in fear
|
|
Night after night it's always the same
|
Someone falls prey to his blade
|
With daylight comes news that another was killed
|
The trademark incisions were made
|
No one is safe on the streets anymore
|
The police no protection at all
|
Taking your chances and living at risk
|
Praying he won't come to call
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Random and senseless his crimes
|
His crimes are obscene
|
Brutally skillful efficient and clean
|
It curdles your blood knowing he's near
|
Trapped in a nightmare - City in fear
|
|
Then all at once the killings all stop
|
As suddenly as they began
|
Still there's no trace and the law can't believe
|
They're no closer to finding their man
|
Time will not heal the wounds he's inflicted
|
Knowing that he's out there still
|
Wondering when he'll make his return
|
And who will be next to be killed
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Random and senseless his crimes
|
His crimes are obscene
|
Brutally skillful efficient and clean
|
It curdles your blood knowing he's near
|
Trapped in a nightmare - City in fear
|
