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
|
|
[CHORUS:]
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS]
|
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
|
|
[SOLO]
|
|
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
|
