Mr. Dracula 02:50
In the midnight hour here I am / You told me you'd make me a man / But I'm just a boy left in the dark / My fate was sealed with the very first kiss / You ate my bleeding heart from my lips / I gave you blood, and still you want some more Drink from me, Mister Dracula / Prove to me you're a real killer / Satiate this burnin' fire / Prove to me you're a real vampire You took me under your wing for a night / I thought this was love at first bite / But again, I'm used and I'm abused Drink from me, Mister Dracula / Prove to me you're a real killer / Satiate this burnin' fire / Prove to me you're a real vampire

If there was ever a moment when you wanted to hold my hand / There might be a shred of a chance that you'd understand / I even let you look in my mirror / I had let you see it all / But all you did was draw back in fear / And isn't that why Lucifer had to fall? Fire in my eyes and you don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance / I'm the devil in your eyes and I don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance I'm a terrible arrangement of human anatomy / It drives me nervous, the idea of you and me / I'm jealous when you hold his words inside your mouth / I wanna smack you until you spit them out / Am I the standard for a devil or something more terrible? Fire in my eyes and you don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance / I'm the devil in your eyes and I don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance / Fire in my eyes and you don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance / I'm the devil in your eyes and I don't stand a chance / This may be hell but I call it romance

Your body's still and it's turning blue / Your cold dead lips say "I love you" / Your body stiffens up at my touch / Maybe I loved you too much This isn't a tragedy / It's a sex scene / This isn't a tragedy / It's a fuckin' sex scene I want your blood all over me / You're gonna be what I wantcha to be / My bed has become your tomb / A private hell just for me and you This isn't a tragedy / It's a sex scene / This isn't a tragedy / It's a fuckin' sex scene Don't make me angry / You wouldn't wanna see me angry / Stop talkin' at me / You're dead, you're dead to me This isn't a tragedy / It's a sex scene / This isn't a tragedy / It's a fuckin' sex scene

Lonely City 03:12
Take this rose, put it on your grave / Nothing in life can be saved / Put your best shirt on, make yourself all pretty / And I'll see you tonight in Lonely City Make the promise of your life / Take me with you, it'll be all right / Call me now, I'll be there too / And I'll hold bloody hands with you / Cry with me tonight, we'll look so pretty / Together in Lonely City Here we are, free atlast / Do you have your one-way pass? / Take a breath and jump right in / Maybe there's joy in the end / We are here now, we are so pretty / You're with me in Lonely City
5.
Odd boy and psycho girl / They rule their own little world / Hand in hand, brain and heart / Their love's a work of art / Skeletons in their closets / Things that time will never forget / Bodies heal, but brains will scar / And the hearts will forever be marred We will / Get through this Psycho girl and odd boy / Play inside their personal void / Tear apart their teddy bears / Behead the barbies, they don't care We will / Get through this Take my hand, my psycho girl / You're worth more than any pearl / I'll be your best friend / Let us laugh as this world ends / You will be judged no more / While your enemies are on the floor / I'll be there by your side / When you laugh and when you cry I'll walk with you through Hell / I'll make sure you are well / My psycho girl / My psycho girl
6.
My Abortion 01:57
A little sorrow on the tongue / One taste and you'll have some fun / Come to us in the light / Be in my brain tonight You've got your ideas all messed up / You seem to think that this is love / I let you in, but gave no key / Are you sure you're looking at me? Are you looking in a mirror? / Are you seein' what you fear? / You now know that I'm a distortion / Get stuck in me, you'll be my abortion
7.
Dead Ears 02:00
I know it hurt / I meant it to / The years of hurt / You put me through / I simply gave back / All you gave to me / Sanity went off track / So I made you bleed Your bloody face / Brings me happiness / Your fucking face / Was a goddamn mess / I think I chose a knife / To put through your head / Here comes the end of the night / Thank god you're dead I'm not the one / Who's crazy now / You are the one / Dead in the ground / I had the last laugh / It fell on dead ears / You test my wrath / Now who's the queer?
8.
Tombstones 04:13
I take a walk down Cemetary Lane / Got my head mixed up and it's givin' me pain / The tombstones all tell me one thing / Nothing in life will last I'll lay down here and drink my wine / Got a watch on my wrist and it doesn't tell the time / But I think it's close to midnight / Don't think I'll go home again Here I am, I've made my bed / Comforted by the company of the dead / The tombstones all tell me one thing / Nothing in life will last Don't you see what I see / All right / I am dead in my head / Tonight I awoke to the sound of screams / Everybody had fled from the bloody scene / Zombies risen from the grave / Eating everyone that I hate
9.
Time To Die 03:05
I heard Death knock upon my door / I couldn't see the sun no more / I tried to open my eyes / Death laughed and whispered, "It's time to die" I welcomed Death into my door / I said, "Lord I can't take no more" / He looked at me with a serpent's smile / He said "Boy, it's been awhile" / Time to die
10.
I am sleeping with a knife in my back / My breathing's heavy, but I swear I won't crack / The cold comes in and the warmth goes out / But I swear to you I ain't down for the count I ain't cold yet / My heart's a little warm / I ain't cold yet / Don't you start to mourn I am walking amongst the dead / I needed some time to clear my poor head / I may be pale and I may be still / But I swear to you, you can't stop my will I ain't cold yet / Don't you bury me / I ain't cold yet / I'm just resting The cold comes in and the warmth goes out / But I swear to you I ain't down for the count I ain't cold yet / My heart's a little warm / I ain't cold yet / Don't you start to mourn
