Blacked out
I'm hearing vices
That call my name
They're so dramatic in tone
But I sit in silence
and think my mind sober
Through all the times
That I proved myself
But you did me wrong
I built my life
Not of straw, not of stick
I was born solid as stone
Ohohohhh
I'm no stranger here,
Among the casualties
Of vagrant animals
Ohohohhhoh
But I've no sympathy
For a deceitful lamb
Lying like a wolf
I'm no stranger
To the dangers
Of a wolf
There is no chance
To find morals in a man,
When you bat your eyes
Twist your hips
And howl as you dance
Oh, what big teeth you have!
My oh my what big teeth you have
the better to devour
all the patience I gave to feed
your starving greed.
My oh my what big teeth you have
My oh my what big teeth you have
Ripping me apart limb from limb
To have your way
...I was easy prey
My oh my what big lies you tell
The marks on my back
Are your secrets kept so well
You knew they would kill...
And all of your bites
So violent, so insecure
Take the taste out of love
The taste out of everything
And all of my time
Was spent loving you
...worthless and betrayed
