(riff)
I see so little hope in you,
So much despair,
As I look in your eyes I wonder,
What thoughts linger there.
(riff)
Life means nothing to you,
At least that's what they say,
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away.

C#m                                               G#m
How were we to know what was going on inside your mind.
          C#m 
You never let it show what was going on behind
B    C#m   E    B
Those killer's eyes
B    C#m   E    B
Killer's eyes

E                               B
You've seen your picture in the paper.
C#m
You're little sister's pinned it on the wall.
F#m                               B
She thinks you're in some kind of movie.
F#m
Imagine her surprise when she saw you on the news.
F#m
Reporters came around and asked for interviews.
B                        C#m  
So little compassion, so icy cool.
        E                                   B
They say you were a poor boy, you know that life can be cruel.
B                                   C#m
Hate builds up from childhood, your world was a slum
        E                                B
But you haven't got the right to blow it to kingdom come

C#m                                                  G#m
How could we know what it was like inside a killer's mind
         C#m
It never really showed, you kept the secret deep inside
B    C#m  E  B
Those killer's eyes
B    C#m  E  B
Killer's eyes

            B               
You say the world is full of bullshit,
       C#m
So you kill just as you see fit.
     E                                B
They say that you're a fanatic with a mission.
B                         C#m
We all go through hell in some kind of way,
E                                           B
Can you tell me what it's like to be there every day?
F#m                           D
When you were young you had a vision
A                                E
Why'd you go and do a thing like that?
F#m                            D
And now we see you on the television.
A
Imagine our surprise when we saw you on the news,
A
And reporters came around and asked for interviews.

B          
I see so little hope in you,
C#m
So much despair,
E
As I look in your eyes I wonder,
B
What thoughts linger there.

Life means nothing to you,
C#m
At least that's what they say,
E                                                        B
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away.
C#m
When you were just a child
                                    G#m
You'd hide away when other children cried
        C#m
But how were we to know
                                                                       B  C#m  E 
 B
These tears that flowed were from a killer's eyes

B
I see so little hope in you,
C#m
So much despair,
E
As I look in your eyes I wonder,
B
What thoughts linger there.
B
Life means nothing to you,
C#m
At least that's what they say,
E                                                        B
But it doesn't mean that you have the right to take life away.

See the whites of their eyes

Those killer's eyes

See the whites of their eyes
