Stabbing in the Dark

Lyrics

[Intro: Spencer Charnas] In calculated silence Captivated by the violence of replay Fifteen years ago today Oh, an evil evolution Will bring a feeble institution to its knees Oh, Doctor, can't you see [Chorus: Spencer Charnas] That when the hands of fate Fall on the midnight hour Behind this mask of hate I don the devil's power [Refrain: Spencer Charnas, Justin "JD" DeBlieck] These are the devil's eyes! The devil's eyes! Go! [Verse 1: Spencer Charnas, Justin "JD" DeBlieck, Both] A former portrait of perfection Painted without plight Now Haddonfield's my battlefield Your kids won't make it home tonight With a madness void of reason I kill with every strike I'll haunt you day after day Knife after knife Day after day Knife after knife (Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum) Taking life after life (Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum) [Chorus: Spencer Charnas] When the hands of fate Fall on the midnight hour Behind this mask of hate I don the devil's power If there's life in the shadows Let the knife leave its mark Where the certainty of safety feels like stabbing Stabbing in the dark [Verse 2: Spencer Charnas, Justin "JD" DeBlieck, Both] You'll learn a heartless human harvest Feeds this festival of flesh Stalking at the top Scream of the crop A silent cut above the rest Where blood's thicker than water I've carved up quite a scene With your worst fears cast on this white veneer I'll change the face ofHalloween [Breakdown: Justin "JD" DeBlieck] You can't kill the boogeyman! [Interlude] Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum [Chorus: Spencer Charnas] When the hands of fate Fall on the midnight hour Behind this mask of hate I don the devil's power If there's life in the shadows Let the knife leave its mark Where the certainty of safety feels like stabbing Stabbing in the dark [Soundbite] "All units respond Multiple fatalities reported on Orange Grove Ave Suspect has been identified as one Michael Myers He is armed and extremely dangerous Shoot to kill; I repeat: shoot to kill, over" [Bridge: Spencer Charnas] I am a shadow where there once was light Strangling all signs of life It's either you or some kid down the street The choice is yours [Breakdown: Spencer Charnas] Trick-'r-fuckin'-treat? [Soundbite] "Michael! Stop it! Ahhhhhh!" [Chorus: Spencer Charnas, Spencer Charnas & Justin "JD" DeBlick] When the hands of fate Fall on the midnight hour Behind this mask of hate I don the devil's power If there's life in the shadows Let the knife leave its mark Where the certainty of safety feels like stabbing Stabbing in the dark
