Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Night will come and I will follow
For my victims, no tomorrow
Make it fast, your time of sorrow
On his trail, I'll make you follow
[Verse 2]
Quarters for the criminally insane
The sentence read for life, I must remain
The path I chose has led me to my grave
To try again, I'd have no other way
[Verse 3]
Quarters for the criminally insane
Escape for me has fast become a game
Soon to be, I'll leave without a trace
Endangered species, end the human race
[Instrumental]
Lead: Hanneman
Lead: King
[Verse 4]
Branded in pain, marked criminally insane
Locked away and kept restrained
Disapprobation, but what have I done?
I have yet only just begun
To take your fuckin' lives!
[Verse 5]
Night will come and I will follow
For my victims, no tomorrow
Make it fast, your time of sorrow
On his trail, I'll make you follow
Written by: Jeff Hanneman, Kerry King
