He's been blind And he's feeling that it's time to make up his mind At the lake by the trees in the creek is a man By the woods in a house with a gun in his hand How betrayed could I be, who would do this to me As he stood over death, he became empty The thunder echoed through the valley The shot was heard by many He took the life of a woman Lies. Lust. Envy How did I get to this point? The dirt is burgundy brown Anxiety takes over Johnny Johnny cannot hear a sound Run Johnny! The dark angel is coming Voodoo beats drummin' Johnny, you better start running Before you meet the bloodhound Red rain is comin' down Redrum. Johnny's in town On his boots is a stain On his shirt is a name On his soul is a pain On his life is a game On his sleeve is a fault On his eyes, there's a fear On his back is a clock And his time is near The woods will provide a home while I run from the sheriff and dogs I'm wet and I'm cold from the night In the morning I'll move in the fog How will I ever survive in society, now that I'm wanted? How will I tell 'em a lie when I'm already haunted Haunted Johnny You're haunted Johnny The dark angel is coming Voodoo beats drummin' Johnny, you better start running Before you meet the bloodhound Red rain is comin' down Redrum. Johnny's in town At the point of no return The sun is setting The Father is disappointed And the son is regretting The wind is picking up Can I weather the storm? Should I just give it up? Lord, why was I born? Day three in the valley I know the boys are gettin' close I'm exhausted from running And I don't know where to go How could I tell my family? Allow 'em to live in the shame With this body on my gun And with murder on my name Murder's on your name, Johnny Murder The dark angel is coming Voodoo beats drummin' Johnny, you better start running Before you meet the bloodhound Red rain is comin' down Redrum. Johnny's in town
