Lyrics :


Eye on the t.v cuz tragedy thrills me.


Whatever flavor it happens to be.


(like)


Killed by the husband...


drowned by the ocean...


Shot by his own son...


she used a poison in his tea, Then she kissed him goodbye.


That's My kinda story


It's no fun till someone dies.





Don't look at me like I am a monster.


Frown out your one face but with the other you


Stare like a junkie into the t.v.


Stare like a zombie


while the mother holds her child. Watches him die.


Hands to the sky, cryin' "why, oh why?"





Cuz I need to watch things die, from a distance.


Vicariously, I live while the whole world dies.


You all need it too don't lie.





Why can't we just admit it?


We won't give pause till the blood is flowing.


Neither the brave nor bold nor brightest of stories told,


We won't give pause till the blood is flowing.





i need to watch things die, from a good safe distance.


Vicariously, i live while the whole world dies.


you all feel the same so why can't we just admit it?





Blood like rain come down. Drum on grave and ground.


Part Vampire, Part warrior, Carnivore, and Voyeur


Stare at the transmittal. Sing to the death rattle





Credulous at best, your desire to believe in angels in the hearts of men.


Pull your head on out your hippy haze and give a listen.


Shouldn't have to say it all again.


The universe is hostile. so Impersonal. devour to survive.


So it is. So it's always been.





We all feed on tragedy. It's like Blood to a vampire.


vicariously, I live while the whole world dies.


Much better you than i.
