(Some one laughs; music begins in ¼; turns to ½)
An eerie chuckle is flying through the air
I hurry as fast as I can to get there
Too late I stumble on the body oh yeah
The air is stale with death and he's only beginning
He's killed so many of my closest friends
He's the one who's now holding all the threads
Tonight is the last time
Tonight he dies
CHORUS
The last laugh
The last chuckle
Last scream
The last time he tears out my humanity
The last time he gets to run free
The last time he goes on a killing spree
The last laugh
The last joke
The last time
The last thing that always goes through my mind:
"Why didn't I do this before tonight?"
Tonight his life is mine...
I've known him longer than I wanted to
I should've stopped him, but the laws were skewed
I should have ended this when Jason died
I told myself "never again" but I lied
The night calls to me
The night is my insanity
I hear his begging plea
I will not grant him mercy...
Barbra and Jason
Still fresh in my mind
I think of Jim
And how Sarah lost her life
I remember all of these horrible things
Makes it so much easier to do this killing
His blood is on my hands
I cannot kill this man
I chose the righteous path
But he will one day suffer my wrath
I think of Jim and how he's always seemed to be right
I think of murder and it starts hurt my mind
(screamed)
I CAN'T DO THIS
I CAN'T DO THIS
I CAN'T DO THIS
...once again
In a twisted way, he wins
Which means I was wrong
He gets the last laugh after all
CHORUS
The end

P.S. Because no one ever wrote a song about Batman...I don't what the deal
is, but they're all about Superman...I mean, c'mon...
