Lyrics
I'm moving on from vampires
And Vultures from the East
I don't care where I'm going
Just away from them at least
I've been tossed around this battle ground
Backwards through the mud
Cos I will not force a discourse
With a thing that sucks my blood
In my mind I moved out weeks ago
In my mind I shut the door
But this husk of skin is still within
Your roof, your walls, your floor
As my soul and spirit gone away
My blood and guts remain
Is it insanity, duality?
I ask you once again
I don't live here anymore
I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you
Can't forgive you anymore
We been back and forth and Oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I've been through it, I can't do it
I don't live here anymore
Am I here because I want to be
Does it bring me joy?
Or am I willingly fulfilling
The ambition of a boy?
A boy I don't remember
But his path I follow still
Should I turn on him, abandon him
Or go in for the kill
A ridiculous addiction
That I'm struggling to ignore
A public crucifixion
In a Tesco Superstore
As I sniff around for evidence
To help me with my case
It's powder on a mirror
A reflection of my face
But I don't live here anymore
I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you
Can't forgive you anymore
We been back and forth and Oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I've been through it, I can't do it
I don't live here anymore
Frost descends but in the end it seems we tend to feel cleansed
As time suspends
We're on the brink and then we sink and so we drink, our glasses clink
And then you wink, I start to think we must be linked
From you to me some mystery, some guarantee, some prophesy
That you and me can finally be in harmony
But I don't live here anymore
I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you
Can't forgive you anymore
We been back and forth and Oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I've been through it, I can't do it
I don't live here anymore
No I don't live here anymore
I can't give you anymore
I can't please you, can't appease you
Can't forgive you anymore
We been back and forth and Oh, I tried to keep this thing afloat
I've been through it, I can't do it
I don't live here anymore
