Exposure
I fathom your fear
As you walk the forbidden land
Exposed to your confiding mind
My deranged work of hand
Unnoticed through the windowpane
Cold blood running through my veins
You saw a damaged man
Guess you don't understand
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
I've been living a secret madness
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
No reason to talk
I'm at ease with what I do
But I know the world won't hesitate
To decide that I'm through
Taking what I feel is right
When the system fails to rectify
The deeds that others do
I do it for you
I've been hiding forever
This affair of mine
I've been dealing in abstract chaos
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
Since I was very young
I've watched and yearned for justice
Now that I'm grown and strong
No more reluctant apprentice
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
I've been living a secret madness
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
As you walk the forbidden land
Exposed to your confiding mind
My deranged work of hand
Unnoticed through the windowpane
Cold blood running through my veins
You saw a damaged man
Guess you don't understand
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
I've been living a secret madness
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
No reason to talk
I'm at ease with what I do
But I know the world won't hesitate
To decide that I'm through
Taking what I feel is right
When the system fails to rectify
The deeds that others do
I do it for you
I've been hiding forever
This affair of mine
I've been dealing in abstract chaos
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
Since I was very young
I've watched and yearned for justice
Now that I'm grown and strong
No more reluctant apprentice
There are shadows within me
No one knows about
I've been living a secret madness
So all this time
You've been fooled by my elusive crime
You thought you knew my name
But I held it within
To protect you from loss and shame
Now you've opened door, exposure, begin
