Lyrics
Killers
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You walk through the subway
His eyes burn a hole in your back
A footstep behind you
He lunges prepared for attack
Scream for mercy
He laughs as he's watching you bleed
Killer behind you
His blood lust defies all his needs
My innocent victims
Are slaughtered with wrath and despise
The mocking religion of hatred
That burns in the night
I have no-one
I'm bound to destroy
All this greed
A voice inside me
Compelling to satisfy me
I can see
What a knife's meant to be
You'll never know
How I came to foresee
My faith in believing is stronger
Than lifelines and ties
With the glimmer of metal
My moment is ready to strike
The death call arises
A scream breaks the still of the night
Another tomorrow
Remember to walk in the light
I have found you
And now there is no place to run
Excitement shakes me
Oh God help me what have I done
Yeah I've done it again!
He walks through the subway
My eyes burn a hole through your back
A footstep behind you
He lunges prepared for attack
Scream for mercy
He laughs as he's watching you bleed
Killer behind you
My blood lust defies all my needs
Look out I'm coming for you!
