Old Man Jacob's Well

Lyrics

I got the craving's again of the wicked*
 Addicted by the blood that floods from the ones I've inflicted
 The pain upon the innocent ain't comin' back to scare me
 In my mind
 I kill to forget, the devil doesn't even dare me anymore
 On my own I stalk and walk
 In the playground for the kid out alone after dark
 Then sparks the flurry
 A fury, inside me
 As I fight to stop myself, teardrops make things blurry
 I know he's just a kid, but maybe I can save his soul
 From this evil world if I can take him to the hole
 I'm prayin' that God strikes me down before I take another life
 I'm mumblin', fumblin' with my knife
 I got to get him quick and take him back behind my shed
 I'm lookin' up on the kid from the deck
 My name is Old Man Jacob
 The man from the meadows
 The man that no one really even knows
 Haha
 Old Man Jacob's well
 Old Man Jacob's well
 14 souls dwell
 In Old Man Jacob's well
 Mommy and daddy said to never ever ever talk to strangers
 Even if they say they know us, don't even tell 'em what your name is
 But I'm no punk because I got the kicks
 I eat my spinach, I'm the fastest kid around and I got on my zips
 It's kinda late to be out in the playground anyway
 Plus there's no one left to play with, what would mommy say?
 I'm a slick kid, I'll take the shortcut quick
 And get home before she leaves
 I won't receive punishment, haha
 Walkin' through the bushes with my protection sticker
 I hear a "pssst"
 Behind my back and there's a man smirkin' then he's hawkin' spit
 Hey buddy boy here's a toy, play with it
 By the way, you remind me of my old son Leroy
 Aaaaahhh
 I begin to dip
 He threw this piece of metal at me which kinda made me trip
 He grabbed my feet and tied my hands up with masking tape
 I'm hopin' he doesn't think what I'm thinkin', God don't let him rape
 He took his sock and put it in my mouth
 I felt a tear drop hit from his cheeks
 I want my mommy
 Where's the damn police?
 Old Man Jacob's well
 Old Man Jacob's well
 14 souls dwell
 In Old Man Jacob's well
 See livin' all alone in that field brought the pain? track him as I strain
 I ignore his moanin' cause there's no turnin' back
 I know I'm dead wrong, I know I'm crazy and I lack
 The love to fight the pain so I do what I gotta do
 I need someone else to feel the pain I'm feelin' too
 But isn't that how it works?
 The world's out to get ya
 And when you take a fall, they tumble down with ya
 The world is no place for the soul of a child
 Cause he could become like me
 Demented, sick and vile
 What else can I do?
 I've tried and I've failed
 I look back at the meadow and I see the bloody trail
 That his body's made
 But no one will ever know
 Cause I'm little man Jacob and I've never had a foe
 Or a friend in this world
 I hope I burn in Hell
 I wipe the blood off my knife and drop the 15th body down into the well
 Old Man Jacob's well
 Old Man Jacob's well
 15 souls dwell
 In Old Man Jacob's well
