Vicarious - Tool

Eye on the the TV

'Cause tragedy thrills me

Whatever flavor it happens to be, like...

"Killed by the husband"

"Drowned by the ocean"

"Shot by his own son"

"She used a poison

in his tea...kissed him goodbye"

It's my kind of story

It's no fun until someone dies

Don'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 distance

Vicariously I live while the whole world dies

You all needn't choose your lie

Why 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

Are right as the story's told

We won't give pause until the blood is flowing

I need to watch things die... from a good safe distance

Vicariously I live while the whole world dies

You all feel the same, so...

Why can't we just admit it?

Blood like rain falling down

Drawn by the brave and proud

Part vampire

Part warrior

Carnivore and warrior

Still have the transmitter

Sink to the death rattle

La, la, la, la, la, la-la-lie (x4)

Credulous at best

Your desire to believe in

Angels in the hearts of men

But pull your head on out

Your head, please, and 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 been

We all feed on tragedy

It's like blood to a vampire

Vicariously I live while the whole world dies

Much better you than I<br><br>Thanks to thudord
