I see sBo little hope in you, With C#7so much despair
As I loEok in your eyes I wonder what tEhoughts linger thBere
LiBfe means nothing to you, At least tC#7hat's what they say
But it doEesn't mean that you have the right to Btake life away
How were C#mwe to know, What was going on inside your minG#md
You never C#mlet it show, What was going on behind
..B.........C#7... Those killer's eEyesB  
Killer's eByesC#7  E  B  
EYou've seen your picture in the pBaper
C#mYou're little sister's pinned it on the wall
EShe thinks you're in some kind of Bmovie
C#mImagine her surprise, when she saw you on the news
Reporters came around and asked for interviews
BSo little compassion, C#7so icy cool
They sEay you were a poor boy, you know that lBife can be cruel
BHate builds up from childhood, your wC#7orld was a slum
But you haEven't got the right to blow it Bto kingdom come
C#mHow could we know, What it was like inside a killer's mindG#m  
It never rC#meally showed, You kept the secret deep inside
B........C#7...... Those killer's eEyesB  
Killer's eByesC#7  E  B  
You say the woBrld is full of bullshit
So you C#7kill just as you see fit
They sEay that you're a fanatic with a mBission
We aBll go through Hell, in sC#7ome kind of way
Can you tEell me what it's like to be there eBvery day?
(actual song has a key change here)
EWhen you were young you had a viBsion
C#mWhy'd you go and do a thing like that?
EAnd now we see you on the televBision
C#mImagine our surprise, when we saw you on the news
And reporters came around and asked for interviews
I see Bso little hope in you,  SC#7o much despair
As I lEook in your eyes I wonder what thBoughts linger there
BLife means nothing to you,  At least tC#7hat's what they say
But it doEesn't mean that you have the right to tBake life away
When you were jC#must a child, You'd hide away when other children criedG#m  
But how were C#mwe to know, These tears that flowed were from a killer's eByes
B   C#7    E     B
I see Bso little hope in you, C#7So much despair
