Broken bat, ancient gun
Shiny sword, magic wand
I will not stop till this job's done
Futile would be for him to run
Don't lock your door, I'll beat it down
With the broken glass of your shattered crown
I'll set my foot atop a shard
I'll let it bleed till you let down your guard
I'll paint red pictures on the floor
The bloody symbols you deplore
I'll scream in pain, I'll laugh in spite
I'll make you watch me bleed all night
Cackling mouse, a witch's prayer
Haunted house, psychotic stare
A man not a man who knows not how
To exorcise vulnerabilities hidden deep down
Unleash the fury in your heart!
Or prepare to have it ripped apart
Invite the tears to burn your eyes!
Lest my fist pummels you a new disguise
Profess with vigor your jealous rage!
Green tongues taste sweet, silent ones strange
Have not you any guilt beneath
This mask of pride, this tattered sheath?
Alone you've left your love to suffer
Doth not want her to know you love her?
A warning to you dear Master of Strength
Your castle will stay empty till you unlock its gates
