Stay away
Narrow slit eyes
Follow me
Wherever I go
Moving through
Darkened alleys
Back and forth so slow
Listen for my breath
And line me in chalk
You can't go
Where I go
Stay away
I see the hidden knife
Drowning in malaise
You can't have my life
If this isn't making sense
Don't complain
Just stop reading
You've nothing left to gain
If paranoia grips you
And tragedy you can't turn away
Find its soulless eyes
And set your fixated gaze
Follow me

Moving through
Darkened alleys
Back and forth so slow
Listen for my breath
And line me in chalk
You can't go
Where I go
Stay away
I see the hidden knife
Drowning in malaise
You can't have my life
If this isn't making sense
Don't complain
Just stop reading
You've nothing left to gain
If paranoia grips you
And tragedy you can't turn away
Find its soulless eyes
And set your fixated gaze
