Saint

Why, hello there little girl

I have an eye for your red curls

I'd like to see you way upstairs up in my suite

Let's have you strip your gown off

While we stumble all around

In such a drunken mess we never want to stop

And I see that you're so pretty

But I've got to leave the city

And I know I'll never see your face again

But I must confess I'll steal your dress

And sniff it as I'm going west

And I'll never sleep again

As I make my way through cities

That are innocent, yet gritty

I go to and fro with my obscurities

And I laugh with local children

As I give them toys I made for them

With smiles on their face they watch me leave

I tell you now I'm sick of it

I'm coming through the thick of it

I wonder is there more to this free lance

And I never knew that through the years

I'd isolate and shout through tears

And with madness I dance

As I wander down dark alley's

And I hear the hobo's asking me

'Oh my good sir, could you please spare a cent?'

I curse them as I kick them down

How merciless I victimize

Their silly dumb expressions off their face

I laugh with glee as I turn round

And leave them all tied up and bound

Dismiss them for the rats to feast upon

And I hear their cries as I run off

But caring not I simply scoff

And I must leave this town

So tell me am I going mad for you?

I want you to be there when I am through

'Cause every day I look away

I crumble down through my dismay

Pathetic little sick display of curses

Tell me do you have a doll of me

You're sticking with pins?

Ooh

So now it's time to leave behind

The days oh how I was so kind

To all the people that I ever met

I refuse to humor them

With stories of my life back when

I never saw a single day of angst

So I left my soul back in the last town

Cannot wait to tear these walls down

I will never go back to that life

'Cause I'd rather cause you slime and rot

And watch you choke as you get caught

And fall upon my knife

So here you stupid child you can throw

Away that smile, down the river

Where you sometimes went to play

And if you only knew that off

The same old tree you used to swing

Your sister hangs so tightly from her noose

And the laughter I am after

I cannot hear with this chatter

So I must have you expire from this world

So I'll strangle life right from your lips

It seems the only thing I'll miss

Is your gasping for air

Running down the streets I only stop

To ravage women in dark corners

Of the alley ways at night

I strip them, and I cut them

And I force them down upon their knees

My eyes roll back to see my evil mind

I know now I'm addicted to this life

I lead it's wicked

And I know this little spree of mine will last

Cause no matter what I'll find you somewhere

Even in your darkest nightmare

I won't miss the chance

Oh, I can't believe what I've done

And it seems that I murder

Everyone that I see

And if I continue all of this

It'll prove to be so

Scandalously me, guaranteed

Oh, I'll never see, I'll never breathe

I'll never come to faith on this

I can't sit here and say I wanna change

Cause every life I take I feel

Their precious little faces break

I need to see the blood upon my hands

And I fear and loathe this state of mind

But I get higher every time

I cause these worthless kinds of mine to scream

So open wide and let it out

I'll stick it deep unless you shout

It's time to die, let's here you cry

So I can sleep at night
