The clock ticks and I wait
I got the time and date
Of a major transaction
A wide open space
The perfect place
For some violent action
Time to kick off the night
I step into the light
But nobody tries to run
They're all standing their ground
They start moving around me
I see it's supposed to be a trap for me
Oh! This is gonna be fun!
No matter what you try to do
Nothing can stop me
You know I'll be coming for you
Can't even slow me down
I only need a little while
You're gonna get it
To put you on trial
Cause I'm the judge jury and executioner in this town
The smile's hard to resist
When faces hit my fist
So much fun I just can't take it
I'm so far in the zone
It feels like every bone
is telling me the perfect place to hit to break it
From behind, a wall of sound
knocks me to the ground
A good hit, and points for surprise
I get up and turn around
I see a familiar frown
And I'm shocked to realize
He's wearing her colors
He's wearing her mask
He has his mother's powers
I shouldn't have to ask but
After all she gave up for you
Don't you feel ashamed
I will beat that costume off of you
And make you give up that name
No matter what you do
Nothing can stop me
You know I'll come for you
Can't even slow me down
I just need a little while
You're gonna get it
To put you on trial
Cause I'm the judge jury and executioner in this town
Hold up
Better think this through
Gotta be sure about what I'm about to do
Do I really want to tussle with Sarah's kid
Knowing 'xactly how he ended up the way that he did
He was already sad, already mad, already in a bad way
already full of pain and violence and doubt
So I'll cut him some slack, hold a bit back
But that doesn't mean I won't knock him the hell out
Then Sarah's standing next to him
with sadness in her eyes
She says,
"Please don't fight us
we're the good guys"
And I'm so confused
She says, "Take another look around"
and I notice all the badges
on the bodies on the ground
Something's wrong with you
I'm here to help you
You're out of control
If justice still matters to you
Please let us take you in
Get you the help you need
Put you on trial
For the harm you've done to the people of this town
Something's wrong with you
And I'm running...
You're out of control
I'm running away...
