Criminally Insane Lyrics

Night will come and I will follow

For my victims, no tomorrow

Make it fast, your time of sorrow

On his trail, I'll make you follow



Quarters for the criminally insane

The sentence read for life I must remain

The path I chose...

    It's about a person who is literally criminally insane. Knows and understands what he's committed but shows no remorse and no understanding between right or wrong. Has been caught serving a life sentence yet only fantasizes of committing more murder once he finds a way to escape. Wanting to end his victims fast and swiftly under the cover of night just to continue his killing spree as he knows and taunts the authorities that will be on to him.

    I believe this song has a dark meaning. It seems to be about a man who has been taken to a psychiatric ward for murder.It seems to be an account of more than one victim. "All my victims, no tomorrow." Since it would be viewed as inhuman, he is sentenced to stay there for the rest of his life. After some time in the ward, he plans an escape; interpereting it as a game for him. He is successful in his escape and continues with his slaughter.
