Eddie Spohn A well crafted musical foray into the mind of a killer. Just as you get used to the tempo the song changes pace and keeps you on your toes. Good vocals and musicianship.

about

Verde goes way out of their comfort zone with this doom track referencing the Zodiac killings of the late 1960s and early 1970s in northern California.

lyrics

Sick of living but unwilling to die
I can't see his face but I can see through his eyes
I'm mapping his marks and reading his lies
Reliving the killings but no reasons why

My hand's writing like it knows it all
The letters keep coming more bodies will fall
I'm trying to fathom the depths of his rage
Until I decode this, California's a cage

Her life draining to an uncertain death
Blood spurting and spilling all over her dress
Someone will find her she won't die this time
But I'll leave this message so they know that she's mine

The puzzles the cyphers just fall into place
I can see through his eyes but I cant see his face
He left us these letters he enjoys the chase
Faced with the clues he erased such a waste

(There's) no quench for his thirst our throats both run dry
Your tears of hatred roll down from our eyes
The feel of his pain it runs through my soul
There is no escape he's lost all control

Slashes and screams and bullets and blades
Collecting my slaves for my kingdom of graves
His hood done in black with a target in white
Taking delight from their fear in the night

So run if you must right into my trap
All hope is crushed there's no turning back
Dealing my pain its too much to bear
(I) cant carry this burden and therefore I share

Now I know I am who you are
I may go away but I'll never be far
Because my fires not out it's just burning low
and where I'll strike next only I know

I almost can't wait until my next attack
Yes I took 37 but they wont be the last
And so I'll see you in Hell, and its been a blast
So until next time, Signed...

Zodiac
