You Don't Know Jack

[Intro] [Verse] Gaslight flickers down the alley Midnight hanging in the mist Another soul just heading home Never knowing what comes next Quiet footsteps match her rhythm Close enough to disappear Something waiting in the darkness Something there to cause her fear No grand warning, no announcement Thunder rolling through the sky Just a shadow crossing pathways And lurking in the night Morning finds what night has hidden Cold stone streets and whispered prayers One more name among the countless Who never knew that he was there [Pre-Chorus] And the city holds its breath While the darkness slips away.... [Chorus] No face in the fog No name on the page A shadow passing near A city locked in fear The darkest monsters live In our hearts and in our minds Who walks with you? Who wears that smile? Who hides a storm under calm disguise? Gone before the sunrise Leaving only blame The thing that haunts us most Is that he got away [Verse] Every badge walks the fog Searching corners, chasing ghosts Questions stacked upon questions With no answers coming close Witnesses all tell a story Each one different from the next Every clue becomes a dead-end No idea of his next steps Newspapers feed public panic Every headline fans the flames Every stranger looks suspicious Every neighbor wants a name London trembles after sunset Doors are locked before the dark Yet the thing that hunts nightly Continues to slither through the fog [Pre-Chorus] And the city lights burn low As the fear spreads far and wide [Chorus] No face in the fog No name on the page A shadow passing near A city locked in fear The darkest monsters live In our hearts and in our minds Who walks with you? Who wears that smile? Who hides a storm under calm disguise? Gone before the sunrise Leaving only blame The thing that haunts us most Is that he got away [Bridge] A doctor... A butcher... A husband... A friend... The stories change The years move on But the questions never end Who hides beneath the surface? Who wears a borrowed skin? How many monsters walk among us Without ever being seen? [Verse] Generations pass the story The pages yellow, theories grow Names are written, names discarded Still nobody knows Because the worst part of the nightmare Wasn't what he chose to do It's that he vanished back among us And nobody knew who [Final Chorus] No face in the fog No name on the page A shadow that disappeared That didn’t hesitate The darkest monsters live In our hearts and in our minds Who walks with you? Who wears that smile? Who wears the calm disguise? Gone before the sunrise Leaving only blame The thing that haunts us most Is that he got away You don't know his face You don't know his name And maybe that's the reason We're still haunted by his game [Outro]
