Sympathy For The Joker
(Rhine)

Verse
A cloaking cape, choking hate, a man who masks his
Face, saving babies, made famous, changes fates

Listed as one of the greats, a real hero
All the people see this image and it’s coming in so clear, yo

He hears and watches like an eagle, he’s lethal to the evil
Alter ego makes me squeamish when the wind blows, heart’s palpitating

He’s up at night like amphetamines caffeinated
A covered face could be replaced he’s ready to be decapitated

With so many friends, you were bound to make an enemy
I’ll get you hero even if it means the end of me

Your downfall’s at my hands, and I stand tall
I know no one should have it all

Chorus
I killed Lois Lane
I raped Mary Jane
I am just what the hero needs
Just what the hero needs
Gonna make this hero…

Verse
He storms in I guess he found my secret lair
His family’s gone, you will probably call it bad behavior

Hello Mr. Hero well it’s really nice to meet you
I too have x-ray vision and I see your costume’s see-through

Hold up, I’m dangerous, it’s just us no hostages
Hero you need justice

He says, “your words do not phase me”
Hero, you know you want to kill me. We’re all a little crazy

In fact you and I are just a coin with two sides
Yinyang Boomerang collides and there’s no place to hide

We’re both laughin at tragedy this is anarachy, can it be
That insanity’s a fallacy, it’s an attack of the animal that answer’s me

I color your life with purpose, you’ve heard of this
It hurts, though—to know that you’re a murderer
I did you a service so

Don’t think you can escape from original sin
It is this criminal thing we all feel from within

He strained his brain then he claimed that our names are the same
And the flames came from nothing, spontaneous combustion

Chorus

Outro
I made this hero believe
