I own the TV
Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor it happens to be like
And by the husband
Drowned by the ocean
Shot by his own son
He used a poison
And in his dream
He kissed him goodbye
Thats my kind of story
It's no fun until someone dies
Don't look at me like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face
But with the other
Stare like a junkie
Into the TV
Stare like a zombie
While the mother holds her child
Watches him die
Hands to the sky crying,
"Why, oh why?"
Cause I need to watch things die... from a distance
Vicariously I live while the whole world dies
You all needn't choose your own lie
Why can't we just admit?
Why can't we just admit?
We won't give pause until the blood is flowing
In the grave no more
The right of the story so
We won't give pause until 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?
Blood like rain fell down
...grave and drown
Part vampire
Part warrior
Carnivore and warrior
Still have the transmitter
Sink to the death rattle
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie
Your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men
But pull your head on out
Your hands, take 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 like you and I
