Velvet Acid Christ

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 a 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 can't be caught
i am above the law
the blood of millions rampant in my mind
no reparation from this crime
i am a criminal only in thought
i'll plunge this knife into your heart
trust in you was a lost cause
