Walking down this dark street again I see the shadow

I turn to see who's there, 1 know it wants me dead

I start to walk faster, thinking it's just in my head

I sentenced him for life, long long ago

He threatened to escape and seek his revenge

Today the headlines read a killer had gotten loose



Why does he haunt me, killer won't let me be

Night after night I can't get no steep

Everywhere 1 turn he's stalking me

I see the blade in the light

He calls my name but nothing's there

Turn face to face into an empty stare



Waiting for someone I know

I don't want to be atone

I got to get away

He's right behind me



He kills for fun, I can't escape his grasp

Foot steps, breathing, turn and your his prey

A shadow, unseen, you wish to live

He follows so close, it's all in his head

Your mind is playing tricks, or at least you hope so



He's return to haunt, I'd heard he was dead

Is this a phobia that won't let me be

Behind the curtain, in the closet, waiting to spring

Under the bed, in your house, he loves killing you



A cry in the night I know it's the wind

There in the bush he was looking in

Every little sound makes my skin crawl

He'd love to watch me die

I know that he's here I feel the time growing near 



Running he's trying to catch me, I've got to get away

He wants to have my death, seeking a place to hide

A knife sunk deep inside, I don't want to die 



I'm going to kill you right now and I'm going to
