| Sufjan Stevens – John Wayne Gacy, Jr. Lyrics | 14 years ago |

The most important lyrics in this song to me are "are you one of them?" and "running far, running fast." Basically saying that this man was just a hurt child, much like his victims, and each of us has more in common than we think with both the killer and the killed. We are all of us damaged and timid, wearing painted masks, running from something, running from everything. It's about fear. |
