  Continuing to mine the collected works of Pete Townshend...

  Behind Red Eyes (adapted from Behind Blue Eyes, off Who's Next)
  (Lament sung by Harry sometime late in OOTP)

  I have seen what it's like
  To be the bad man
  To be the mad man
  Behind red eyes

  I have sensed what it's like
  When he's angry
  at the failings
  of his dark allies

  And my dreams
  They aren't as empty
  As I wish that they could be

  I've spent hours, in a long hallway
  with a locked door
  beckoning me

  No one knows what it's like
  To feel his feelings
  Like I do
  What must I do?

  No one else knows his joy
  Or his anger
  Most of my schoolmates
  Don't think it's true.

  But my dreams
  They aren't as empty
  As I wish that they could be

  I've heard Rookwood telling secrets
  to further vengeance
  that's aimed at me.

  When my scar hurts me, don't tell Sirius
  'cause he might panic and lose his cool
  If I tell Ron or Hermione
  They may just shrug and I'll feel like a fool.

  Sometimes I feel I'm possessed by evil
  I see the Headmaster as though I am a snake
  If our eyes meet, I feel I should strike him
  Though he's the last person that I should hate

  I have seen what it's like
  To be the bad man
  To be the mad man
  Behind red eyes
