Velvet Acid Christ: Caught

"Insanity"...Just a word used to sum up
all the things they've heard;
All my deeds...all the blood...all the drugs...

What I did to those pretty little girls...
Pieces that were missing in the puzzle I created.

Children in the streets...
Lying decapitated,
inviscerated, with their tongues cut out.

"What demon could do this?"
people like to ask.
I read the tabloids...
I like to laugh!

I am the monster from their dreams.
I am what they'd like to be!

I can get away with this!
I can be free!
I can walk down your street
and you wouldn't even notice me!

I am the malcontent
that slips through the cracks.
I am the nightmare
that always comes back.

I cannot be caught!
I am above the law!
The blood of millions rampant in my mind,
no reparation for this crime.

I am a criminal only in thought,
I'll plunge this knife into your heart!
Trust in you was a lost cause...
Faith in God was a lost cause...

A darkened corridor slick with bloodshed.
A hand that is mine...spattered in red.
Trust in this was a lost cause...
Faith in this was a lost cause...

Screams that are muffled...
drowned out, drowned out,
out of breath.

Screams that are muffled...
drowned out, drowned out,
out of breath.

Run, run, you can't hide;
Hide, hide, but you'll die;
Run, run, you can't hide;
Run, run, you can't hide.

I am the monster from your dreams!
I am what you'd like to be!

I am the malcontent
that slips through the cracks.
I am the nightmare
that always comes back.

I cannot be caught!
I am above the law!
I cannot be caught!
I am above the law!

No law. No gods. No faith.
Humanity is not what I suffer from...
Humanity is not what I suffer from!
