Walking down this dark street again I see the shadow  I turn to see who's there, 1 know it wants me dead  I start to walk faster, thinking it's just in my head  I sentenced him for life, long long ago  He threatened to escape and seek his revenge  Today the headlines read a killer had gotten loose    Why does he haunt me, killer won't let me be  Night after night I can't get no steep  Everywhere 1 turn he's stalking me  I see the blade in the light  He calls my name but nothing's there  Turn face to face into an empty stare    Waiting for someone I know  I don't want to be atone  I got to get away  He's right behind me    He kills for fun, I can't escape his grasp  Foot steps, breathing, turn and your his prey  A shadow, unseen, you wish to live  He follows so close, it's all in his head  Your mind is playing tricks, or at least you hope so    He's return to haunt, I'd heard he was dead  Is this a phobia that won't let me be  Behind the curtain, in the closet, waiting to spring  Under the bed, in your house, he loves killing you    A cry in the night I know it's the wind  There in the bush he was looking in  Every little sound makes my skin crawl  He'd love to watch me die  I know that he's here I feel the time growing near     Running he's trying to catch me, I've got to get away  He wants to have my death, seeking a place to hide  A knife sunk deep inside, I don't want to die     I'm going to kill you right now and I'm going to
