Nuclear Clown

I am the clown that determines who is to fall 
If I move those around me perish
a single twitch could be the switch from life to death for all 
I walk about your streets 
and suckle on your lifes light 
dont struggle
dont fight
these habits need no explanation 
you would not understand 
I am not human in any shape in no way am I like man 
your hiding spots are alight 
this is the time of feeding 
brought down by my arm of might
this one thing is true
I will not be deprived of you
