The shadow crept across her face...
The magic of the night unlaced...
Her spirit small and pure...
And in her heart a love so sure
With hope she can cast her pain aside...
She follows it as a guide
Sudden fear grips her soul
To her hopes she gives control
That they might lead her far away...
And not into the dark astray...
Crystals bursting through the sky
Like fireworks in god's eye
A prelude to so many tears
Have gripped her throughout the years
Now it's her time to go...
But where for only her to know...
In the beautiful night
Where the moon glows bright
The faintest shadows out of sight
Brains spread out like butter
Eyes closed as a shutter
Words mumbled in a clutter
You're sent out of town
Being the class clown
And you stumble everywhere, falling down
The fear consumes you
Winding you tight like a screw
This feeling is quite new
Still you dwell
In this living hell
Oh well...It's your soul to sell!
You see a hallucination
Again in succession
Wishing for protection
Demons in the night
Take off in flight
To cause you even more fright
They're out for the kill
For you there is no thrill
And suddenly...time stands still
A mind that reels with chaos,
Brings Gotham to its knees.
With pale white skin and a crimson grin,
He strikes fear into your heart.
Surrounded by darkness,
His lifeless eyes bore into your mind.
The laughter is his life
And the slaughter is his joy.
His calling card bears his name,
But nothing of his looks.
His green hair stands out in the crowd,
As if he were saying to go.
But you will stop dead in your tracks
Only because your fear holds you still.
Why does he kill?
Nobody knows.
He has a message for you.
"Why so serious?"
