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
