The Mess You Made

"- police are advising everyone
To stay clear of
Alley and Saxby during nighttime hours- "
"- and so far
None of the bodies have been recovered -"
"- behind me
Where this vicious assault has left only
Blood in it's aftermath -"
"- and no one knows when or
Where the Trashman will strike again-"

I'm always following in your wake
I'm always cleaning up the mess you make
I've got my weapons ready, here we go
It will be over before you know

I'm right behind you in the dead of night
Keeping an eye on everything you trade
You put a tag on everything in sight, but you
Pay no attention to the mess you've made

Hear me on this
I will bring you the end of your world
It's a bedtime story they don't tell the rich
You are all on my watchlist and karma
Well, karma's a bitch

Unseen hands are throwing the dice
Systems crumbling beneath their weight
Remember: everything has got a price
And every soul has an interest rate
Evaluate the sum of your lies
Put on your business
Smile and corporationalize
What you brought upon others has
Come back for you
You'll become what you used to despise

Traffickers of lives and traders of fate
Selling your dead lust across the sea
And once you are free, it is all too late
They once paid for you
But now they pay for me

"of allnot one diamond has been recovered-"
"in Queens after midnight"

Some blood has been shed
Your greed has been fed
As have the imp on your back
The voices in your head
Put your calls on hold and
Allow me this dance
Reschedule your meetings and
Cancel your plans

Always tainted, always scarred
Sick of waiting, no holds barred
Judgment fails, and morals fade
Cleaning up the mess you made

Stay where you stand
And get choked by that invisible hand
In this corporate hell that
Will only compel you
To retcon supply and demand
I'll bring you down on your knees
From the top of the world to despair
I'm the solution, the treatment
And you're the disease
I'll be the end of your line
No doubt watch out beware

"And once again, he has gotten away"
