I fathom your fear
As you walk the forbidden land
Exposed to your confiding mind
My deranged work of hand
Unnoticed through the windowpane
Cold blood running through my veins
You saw a damaged man
Guess you donât understand
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
Iâve been living a secret madness
So all this time
Youâve been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now youâve opened door, exposure, begin
No reason to talk
Iâm at ease with what I do
But I know the world wonât hesitate
To decide that Iâm through
Taking what I feel is right
When the system fails to rectify
The deeds that others do
I do it for you
Iâve been hiding forever
This affair of mine
Iâve been dealing in abstract chaos
So all this time
Youâve been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now youâve opened door, exposure, begin
Since I was very young
Iâve watched and yearned for justice
Now that Iâm grown and strong
No more reluctant apprentice
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
Iâve been living a secret madness
So all this time
Youâve been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now youâve opened door, exposure, begin
