The monster shattered the day

In a place where innocents play

I was mourning as the headlines shouted his nameThey didn′t waste any time

I was disgusted when the madman's image

Appeared at the top of the screen

Some were barely alive

Too many didn′t survive

Still they kept repeating headlines, shouting the name

Do they not realize

The future demons with the hope of becoming

The one at the top of the screen?

They've thrown morality away

With such depravity, I must say

You made sure the world will remember the name

But didn't the thought even enter your mind?

You′d give a new legion of monsters

A reason to take your life

The pictures drove me insane

Can′t get them out of my brain

You made certain they were right at the top of the page

You disrespected the dead

When the only name was of the one who committed

The murder at the top of the page

The madman watching with glee

As the herd of innocents flee

They saw it all unfold right on the face of the screen

Perhaps they could be the one

Who'd become famous for the acts of terror

Reflected on the face of the screen?

You′ve thrown morality away

With such depravity, I must say

You made sure the world will remember the name

But didn't the thought even enter your mind?

You′d give a new legion of monsters

A reason to take your life

And I call you a pimp, as you whore the insane

The damage you caused you cannot rectify

You've inspired new legions of monsters

Determined to take more life

Take a look around, listen to the sound

Feel it to the ground, fear has come in a wave

Just another gathering of helpless innocents forced into the grave

Listen to me now, are you with me now?

Can you tell me how these vultures still glorify them?

Let′s defy them

Take a look around, listen to the sound

Feel it to the ground, fear has come in a wave

Just another gathering of helpless innocents forced into the grave

Listen to me now, are you with me now?

Can you tell me how these vultures still glorify them?

Let's defy them

You made sure the world will remember the name

But didn't the thought even enter your mind?

You′d give a new legion of monsters

A reason to take your life

And I call you a pimp, as you whore the insane

The damage you caused you cannot rectify

You′ve inspired new legions of monsters

Determined to take more life

The monster shattered the day

The monster shattered the day

You're giving a legion of monsters a reason
