The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Stapled shut - Inside an outside world

And I'm sealed in tight - Bizarre but right at home

I'm claustrophobic - Closing in

And I'm catastrophic - Not again

I'm smeared across the page and doused in gasoline

I wear you like a stain, yet I'm the one who's obscene

Catch me up in all your sordid little insurrections

I've got no time to lose - I'm just caught up in all the cattle



Fray the strings... Throw the shapes... Hold your breath... Listen



I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that



I'm ripped across the ditch and settled in the dirt

And I wear you like a stitch, yet I'm the one who's hurt

Pay attention to your twisted little indiscretions

I've got no right to win - I'm just caught up in all the battles



Locked in clutch... Pushed in place... Hold your breath... Listen



I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that



My end, it justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road and my end

It justifies my means

All I ever do is delay

My every attempt to evade

The end of the road



I am a world before I am a man

I was a creature before I could stand

I will remember before I forget

Before I forget that

I push my fingers into my eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside

If the pain goes on...



I have screamed until my veins collapsed

I've waited as my time's elapsed

Now all I do is live with so much fate

I've wished for this, I've bitched at that

I've left behind this little fact

You cannot kill what you did not create



I've gotta say what I've gotta say

And then I swear I'll go away

But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise

I guess I'll save the best for last

My future seems like one big past

You're left with me 'cause you left me no choice



(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!



Put me back together or separate the skin from bone

Leave me all the pieces, then you can leave me alone

Tell me the reality is better than the dream

But I found out the hard way - nothing is what it seems



(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside

If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!



All I've got - all I've got is insane



(I push my fingers into my) eyes

It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache

But it's made of all the things I have to take

Jesus it never ends, it works it's way inside

If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it!



All I've got - all I've got is insane

am so alike you

In so many ways

I know I’m just a copy

That carries on the strain

But, we make the same mistakes

‘Cause, we are one and the same

We leave behind the stain

That will never separate



All the lies in me

All that dies in me

How can I live without you?

All that lies in me

All that dies in me

How can I live without you?



I am your mirror image

I’m all you left behind

You made me what I am

But who the hell am I?

But, we make the same mistakes

‘Cause, we are one and the same

We leave behind the stain

That will never separate



All the lies in me

All that dies in me

How can I live without you?

All that lies in me

All that dies in me

How can I live without you?



We’ve made the same mistakes

We are one and the same

How can I live



Do you think of me?

Do you dream of me?

I always dream about you

Do you think of me?

Do you dream of me?

I always dream about you
