Ballad Of The Butcher (ADAM MERCER VOCAL AUDITION)
This is the ballad of the butcher Please stop me before I kill again All that bloodshed and snapped necks Roll around inside of my head The evil that lives within me It spreads without my consent A landlord of sadistic intent Every day I hunt for the next one For the perfect picture that I can hang on my wall These paths crossed for a reason A reason above my head and unluckily for them I'm a monster Tied up in the truck bed I wonder if they wonder How they had no idea what I really wanted The man who smiled A man of surrender Could be the same one that is putting them under I hate it What my mind and body craves Why was I made this way? John the butcher Watches you when you move John the butcher Waits for you in your room I'll cut you loose so I can hunt you Run you down and then I'll catch you Laugh in the night as you fall to your knees Exploit all your hopes, dreams and memories John the butcher Watches you when you move John the butcher Waits for you in your room I can't let you go now You've seen my other side I am John the butcher This is goodbye The evil that lives within me Spreads without my consent The evil that lives within me A landlord of sadistic intent It's not my fault
