Do you recall when I did call
And pledged to take your life away
A shrieking madman preaching death
And it's all bitter details
You were out tonight, working late
You were unaware of our date
You heard me clear, you knew I was here
For your life began to fear
Now you stand before me
With hands bound tight a tear in your eye
I wonder if your will to live
Is stronger than my will to kill.
Begging for mercy
Pray for the day
Begging for mercy
The night belongs to me.
You run away, you slip astray
Leaving behind a trail of blood
I'm too quick I pull you back
Laugh out loud and then attack
When my knife rips your flesh
You feel the pain but do you go insane
Do you ever start to wonder about
The feel of steel and how to deal with
Do you recall when I did call
And pledged to take your life away
A shrieking madman preaching death
And all it's bitter details
Now your body lays alone
Amongst the trash upon the street
A crowd is gathered they feel pain
But do they know I'll strike again?
