    LYRICS (official)
    Red hand takes a purple terror 
    Love knows these knots 
    When we escaped from the madhouse 
    We were locked out 
    
    Tonight we murder
    
    Between the battle of careening hate 
    We will wait, but not for our time 
    To hate and take
    To deflower 
    
    Tonight 
    Tonight we murder
    
    Between the pain of battle and pain 
    Love will not untie these knots 
    A twisted puppet filled with hate 
    He'll not untie these knots 
    
    Who... why, murdered?
    Tonight we murder
