Hands Of The Ripper

from Immortal, Eternal by She's Still Dead

/

lyrics

In a flash of cold hard steel
Your internal organs I start to reveal
This will be your last night alive
Slit your throat what I contrive
Darkness settles all around
Concealing streets of this town
Footsteps echo on coble stones
Lurking near lustful moans
Fading glimpse alone in the dark
Waiting for you to disembark
Send a message with one swift stroke
One at a time beneath night’s cloak
Open them up see what’s inside
Sins of the trade what they hide
Gather my things as they perish
Leaving a scene that is garish

Hands of the ripper
Edge of the scalpel blade
In the back of alleys I deal my deadly trade

Horrible urge that drives to kill
Crushing measures beyond my will
Forcing my diabolical hand
Unsettling urges I don’t understand
Driven to murder thirst for gore
Cut them down blood on the floor
Draw the knife across the skin
Feel the pressure as it goes in
Usher them from this mortal coil
Releasing them from their toil
Blood drips out of all your veins
A lifeless husk is all that remains
There will be no justice
In this world of numbness
Left to stalk the night alone
Search for enemies of the throne

GO! KILL! DIE!
