I SAW THE RIPPER

[Pre-Chorus]
We dress up nice to break down tonight
And we know we'll be drunk, when we're home, we'll be high
As he stumbles, he falls and he thinks to himself:
"Why do I take aim at myself?"
He saw the ripper through the window looking out
In the bay, soaking wet in the rain
He steps forth to introduce himself
The waves crash through the house

[Chorus]
If I could tell the future, I would stop it
Stay inside tonight, the storm is coming
And I would rather die for you to livе
I'd give my life to buy you time if you needеd it
The notes they leave behind are what haunts him
A devil come to life in silk clothing
And every single time he dreams, he wakes in sweat throughout the night and lays there frozen

[Post-Chorus]
Coppered eyes
Cold hands and a broken smile
I guess I just think it's funny how
I've only seen him when he's turned around and running in the wrong direction
Oracle
I could see him through the costume
What a fucked up face you have to match you, it's disgusting
Run away from blame, you 'guised monster
