I moved from Paris
to Minneapolis
to escape the war
I've set up shop
under the big top
where I will soar
Now I've got secret
Yes I've got secret
Darkness dwells in me
Delightfully twisted
and full of hatred
I will never be free
The wicked, the evil, with razors, and sickles
The saints, the angels, with halos, and heroes
All Rage inside, my mind
A knife Thrower by day
A killer I’d say
To hell I am bound
You don’t need worry
My memory isn’t blurry
You'll be safe and sound
For the throats I’ve taken
We're bound for damnation
and I am always so careful
So please don’t fear
Don’t shed a tear
Unless you’re one of the Dreadful
The wicked, the evil, with razors, and sickles
The saints, the angels, with halos, and heroes
All Rage inside, my mind
