Just as a painter bleeds from their fingers for the craft
Perfecting every stroke until the canvas speaks to them
Just as an author weaves their tale of woes
Perfecting every word until it speaks to you
Murder is a vessel
Where creativity flows, and from it births something special
It takes a lot of guts just to take up the mantle
As the one true king in the art of cruelty

Let me introduce you all to this mastermind behind the massacre
He moves in silence and bathes in violence
Through blackened eyes, he sees the world as his circus

Come on down and enjoy the fun
Where the food is funny and the tears will run
Laughter is only had by one
While the rest of you are done

Masochistic tendencies
And a sociopathic mind to please
He takes one look in his bag of tricks and knows which part of skin he'll slit
With a bone-saw planted in his grip
He'll do what no one's ever dreamt
Taken a victim, and doubled them up
Split in two, now twice the fun

Split in two
This is the art of cruelty

The perception of evil is put to sleep
His name and image is one with hallows eve
If he was the first of creation
Born from the dust to plague the garden
He'd hollow Eve

The writings on the wall
(Don't forget the name)
He'll seal your death even without his fucking head

Art is cruelty
Don't forget the name
Writing's on the fucking wall
Art is cruel
Art is cruelty
