The Modern Prometheus Lyrics

She drinks Bacardi and she smokes Marlboro red

I can taste both when I wake up in her bed the next day

I get this funny feeling like I'm running out of luck

Then I'm disassembled by an eighteen wheeler truck in the road

She takes me to a doctor and he stitches me up right

He'd reattach me head and I'm alive

I am the child you made me

You have responsibility, if you own me then you owe me

And all I want is company

But I'm decomposing

I spent a couple nights in the catacombs

Thinking you could say it's like a second home to me

She says it's kinda cute when I can't get out my words

I tell her it's fine cause I'd rather just hear hers anyway

She tells me "blow my mind" in the backseat of the drive-in

And I'd reattach your head and we'd go courting

The only monster here is me

You look like my fantasies

Almost make believe to me

You are a vision of stitch perfection

But you're decomposing

We are monsters just the same

Let the echo scream your name

The only monster here is me

I thought you were all I need

You could make me happy

We will fall apart together

But we're decomposing

I am the monster you made me

I am a product of science and human naivety

And I am sorry I just got lonely

Now we're decomposed
