Judas Priest

written by glenn tipton

your innocence all but fades
when we peel the veneer away
it's all an act which you stage
with your two faced barricades

rage consumes
you every night
caged inside you
trying to get out

schizophrenic basic needs
fools me into complacency
but now i see through your facade
behind the mask a monster snarls

hatred burning
in your chest
dazed but learning
in your quest

chorus

oh it's killing me your unpredictability
oh all the time
you hide behind
your jekyll and hyde

now i realise
there's a dark side
disguised

always changing
then love hating
baiting me

your innocence all but fades
when we peel the veneer away
it's all an act which you stage
with your two faced barricades

rage consumes you every night
caged inside you trying to get out

chorus
