Rigor mortis city in fear lyrics

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
