A silent sleeping vampire, arisen from his grave As I am still quiet in the dark The only sign of breathing, a flicker on my skin The only sign of life, my beating heart
What does it take to open my eyes? What does it take to register surprise? What does it take to feel joy? What does it take to feel pain?
Floors creep but doors are still I've read all the books about being ill I know the truth, the truth knows I'm right One day you'll fear me in the night
A drowning mind sees daylight, coming up for air I've been working hard for this all my life and I like it this way
I know they're staking out my house That's why I'm quiet like a mouse I don't know love but I know what's right I feel my sickness every night
My TV fills my world with light Twenty-four hours of second sight I talk to God on my station He gives me secret information
Mother suffocate me Mother suffocate me There's no way out of here It's tearing me apart There's no way out of here There's no way out of here Mother suffocate me There's no way out of here There's no way out of here No, no, no way out of here
