Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lurking in the dismal fog
Hungry for your blood
Seeking harmless victims
Satisfy my needs
[Verse 2]
Schizophrenic lunatic
Uncontrolled desire
Rape and ravage lady fair
Pledged to die
[Verse 3]
No apparent motive
Just kill and kill again
Survive my brutal thrashing
I'll hunt you till the end
My life's a constant battle
The rage of many men
Homicidal maniac
[Verse 4]
Trapped in mortal solitude
Lift the gleaming blade
Slice her flesh to shreds
Watch the blood flow free
[Verse 5]
Hatred growing stronger
None survive my wrath
Suffer from the throbbing pain
Yield your life to me
[Verse 6]
No apparent motive
Just kill and kill again
Survive my brutal thrashing
I'll hunt you till the end
My life's a constant battle
The rage of many men
Homicidal maniac
[Verse 7]

[Verse 8]
Kill the preacher's only son
Watch the infant die
Bodily dismemberment
Drink the purest blood
[Verse 9]
Unrelenting need to kill
Death upon you now
Anxiously awaiting
Next in line
[Verse 10]
No apparent motive
Just kill and kill again
Survive my brutal thrashing
I'll hunt you till the end
My life's a constant battle
The rage of many men
Homicidal maniac
