lyrics

The machine and the vampire
Well they need fresh blood to keep alive
And just to keep goin'
Just to keep the grinding teeth oiled and rolling

Well it's clear now
That evil exists
And it casts a shadow on us all
The things I've done and the things I've seen
Well they changed me

"What doesn't kill you, won't always make you stronger
What doesn't kill you, won't always make you stronger
What doesn't kill you..."
Won't leave you alone

I had no choice but to point a gun at a man
And it cast a shadow over him
But in the city of sand
That man can explode and take you with him

Well it seems that good evil and exist
And they're separated by a name
While others might claim
That two are simply one and the same- oh no

Cause when the teeth touch your neck and break the skin,
They've sucked you in.

I once had a friend, but now he's gone
And I watched him leave in a flash
He walked through the door
I don't wanna tell you anymore
