City in Fear

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
