KILLERS




WRATHCHILD
Harris

I was born into a scene
of angriness and greed,
and dominance and persecution.
My mother was a queen,
my dad I've never seen,
I was never meant to be.
And now I spend my time
looking all around,
For a man
that's nowhere to be found.
Until I find him
I'm never gonna stop searching,
I'm gonna find my man,
gonna travel around.

Chorus:
'Cos I'm a wrathchild,
well I'm a wrathchild.
Yeah I'm a wrathchild.
I'm coming to get you, oooh yeah.

Say it doesn't matter
ain't nothin' gonna alter
the course of my destination.
I know I've got to find
some serious piece of mind,
or I know I'll go crazy.
But now I spend my time
looking all around,
For a man
thats nowhere to be found.
Until I find him
I'm never gonna stop searching,
I'm gonna find my man,
gonna travel around.

Chorus:

MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE
Harris

I remember it as plain as day
although it happened in the dark of the night.
I was strolling through the streets of Paris
and it was cold it was starting to rain.

And then I heard a piercing scream
and I rushed to the scene of the crime
but all I found was the butchered remains
of two girls lay side by side.
Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
run before the killers go free

There's some people coming down the street
at last there's someone heard my call
I can't understand why they're pointing at me
I never done nothing at all.
But I must have got some blood on my hands
because everyone's shouting at me
I can't speak French so I couldn't explain
and like a fool I started running away.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free.
And now I've gotta get away from the arms of the law.
All France is looking for me.
I've gotta find my way across the border for sure
down the south to Italy.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
someone call the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.

Well I made it to the border at last
But I can't erase the scene from my mind
Anytime somebody stares at me, well
I just start running blind
Well I'm moving through the shadows at night
Away from the staring eyes
Any day they'll be looking for me
'Cause I know I show the signs of...

Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the arms of the law

Murders in the Rue Morgue
running from the Gendarmes
Murders in the Rue Morgue
am I ever gonna be free

It took so long and I'm getting so tired
I'm running out of places to hide
Should I return to the scene of the crime
Where the two young victims died
If I could go to somebody for help
It'd get me out of trouble for sure
But I know that it's on my mind
That my doctor said I've done it before.

Murders in the Rue Morgue
they're never gonna find me
Murders in the Rue Morgue
I'm never going home.


ANOTHER LIFE
Harris

As I lay here lying on my bed,
sweet voices come into my head.
Oh what it is, I wanna know,
please won't you tell me it's got to go.
There's a feeling that's inside me,
telling me to get away.
But I'm so tired of living,
I might as well end today.

INNOCENT EXILE
Harris

My life is so empty,
nothing to live for.
My mind is all confusion,
'cos I defied the law.
When you weren't there to help me,
I lost my mind and ran.
I never had no trouble
before this all began.

I'm running away,
no where to go.
I'm lost and tired
and I just don't know. Yeah...
They say I killed a woman,
they know it isn't true.
They're just trying to frame me,
and all because of you. Yeah...

KILLERS
Di'anno/Harris

You walk through the subway,
his eyes burn a hole in your back,
A footstep behind you,
he lunges prepared for attack.
Scream for mercy,
he laughs as he's watching you bleed,
Killer behind you,
his blood lust defies all his needs.

My innocent victims are slaughtered
with wrath and despise,
The mocking religion
of hatred that burns in the night.
I have no one,
I'm bound to destroy all this greed,
A voice inside me
compelling to satisfy me.

I can see
what a knife's meant to be,
And you'll never know
how I came to forsee, see, see.

My faith in believing
is stronger than lifelines and ties,
With the glimmer of metal
my moment is ready to strike.

Death call arises,
a scream breaks the still of the night,
Another tomorrow,
remember to walk in the light!
I have found you,
and now there is no place to run,
Excitement shakes me,
oh God help me what have I done?!
Oooh yeah, I've done it!
YEEEEAAAAAAAAHHHH!

You walk through the subway,
my eyes burn a hole in your back,
A footstep behind you,
he lunges prepared for attack.
Scream for mercy,
he laughs as he's watching you bleed,
Killer behind you,
my blood lust defies all my needs.
Oooh look out, I'm coming for you!
Ahahahaha!

PRODIGAL SON
Harris

Listen to me Lamia,
listen to what I've got to say.
I've got these feelings,
and they won't go away.

I've got these fears inside
that'll bring me to my knees.
Oh help me Lamia
or I'm sure I'll die, oh please.

I feel unsettled, now
I know that I've done wrong.
I've messed around with mystic things
and magic for too long. I feel I'm being paid
with this nightmare inside me,
The devil's got a hold on my soul
and he just won't let me be.

I'm on my knees, oh help me please.
I'm on my knees, help me please.

Oh Lamia please try to help me.
The devil's got a hold of my soul
and he won't let me be.
Lamia I've got this curse,
I'm turning to bad.
The devil's got a hold of my soul,
and it's driving me mad. Oooooh

Oh Lamia please try to help me.
The devil's got a hold of my soul
and he won't let me be.
Lamia I've got this curse,
I'm turning to bad.
The devil's got a hold of my soul,
and it's driving me mad. Oooooh

PURGATORY
Harris

Thinking of an age old dream,
places I have never seen,
Fantasies lived times before.
I split my brain, melt through the floor.

Over clouds my mind will fly,
forever now I can't think why.
My body tries to leave my soul.
Or is it me, I just don't know.
Mem'ries rising from the past,
the future's shaddow overcast.
Something's clutching at my head,
through the darkness I'll be led.

Oh another time, another place.
Oh another smile on another face.
When you see me floating up beside you,
You get the feeling
that all my love's inside of you.

Please take me away,
take me away, so far away.
Please take me away,
take me away, so far away.
Please take me away,
take me away, so far away.
