VICARIOUSEye on the TV 'cause tragedy thrills me Whatever flavour It happens to be like; Killed by the husband Drowned by the ocean Shot by his own son She used the poison in his tea And kissed him goodbye That's my kind of story It's no fun 'til someone diesDon'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 distanceVicariously I, live while the whole world dies You all need it too, don't lieWhy can't we just admit it? Why can't we just admit it?We won't give pause until the blood is flowing Neither the brave nor bold The writers of stories sold We won't give pause until the blood is flowingI need to watch things die From a good safe distanceVicariously 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 Drawn on grave and groundPart vampire Part warrior Carnivore and voyeur Stare at the transmittal Sing to the death rattleLa, la, la, la, la, la, la-lieCredulous at best your desire to believe in Angels in the hearts of men Pull your head on out Your head believes it 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 beenWe all feed on tragedy It's like blood to a vampireVicariously I, live while the whole world dies Much better you than I
