NOTHING LEFT TO SELL

WITH YOUR CHILDLIKE MEMORABILIA SCATTERED ALL AROUND
YOU ARE SEARCHING FOR A MEMORY THAT NEVER WILL BE FOUND

YOUR HALF DRAWN WATERCOLORS LAY IN TATTERS ON THE FLOOR
PHOTOS MEN HAD TAKEN HAVE BEEN TAPED UPON YOUR DOOR
AND HERE YOU ARE YOU'RE SITTING EATING CAKES THAT NEVER WERE QUITE DONE

YOUR SPIRIT HAS BEEN BROKEN AND YOUR PRIDE HAS LEFT YOU TOO
THIS PHOTO YOU ARE STARING AT FROM A SALE THAT HAPPENED LONG AGO
TAUNTS YOU AND REMINDS YOU ~ YOU HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO SELL

I COULD GO ON AND ON ABOUT YOU BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS THAT I CAN SAY
TO WAKE YOU FROM YOUR SPIRAL INTO WHAT CAN ONLY BE DECAY

HELP US GATHER UP YOUR PRECIOUS CLIPPINGS GET YOU CLEANED AND FEELING BETTER
WE CAN BOX AND LABEL YOUR COLLECTIONS 
COPY ARTICLES YOU'VE SAVED

EXPOSE YOUR TIMELESS ACHING BEAUTY AND GIVE YOU BACK YOUR SIGHT AND SOUND

THEN WITH YOUR HAIR ALL NEATLY BRAIDED AND YOUR SIMPLE GOWN OF WHITE
I WILL TAKE YOUR HAND AND WE CAN DANCE ON OUT INTO THE LIGHT

THE DEMON BRIDE OF BELLEROSE

VAMPIRES ROAM IN BRADDOCK  PARK 
THEN WALK ALONG THE AVENUE
THEY TAKE THEIR TIME AND STALK THEIR PREY
YOU'LL NEVER SEE THEM WATCH
YOU'LL NEVER SEE THEM FOLLOW 
YOU'LL FEEL A CHILL THEN TURN AROUND
BUT FEAR IS ALL YOU'LL EVER FIND
YOU WILL NOT SEE THEM HOVER 


THEY CRUISE THE HALLS OF VAN BUREN HIGH
THEY TAUNT THE SLAVES OF CREEDMORE
SUCKING IN THEN SPEWING OUT
THEN SUCKING IN AGAIN
SUCKING IN ALL THEY WANT ~ THEY ALWAYS WONT
THEN WANT SOME MORE

YOU'LL THINK YOU'RE SAFE IN YOUR PADDED ROOM 
YOU'LL WONDER HOW HE GOT IN THERE
HIS COLD BLUE STARE WILL STRIKE YOU DUMB
HIS COLD BLUE STARE WILL MAKE YOU NUMB
DON'T TRY TO MOVE ~ YOU'RE IN HIS WEB
HE'LL HAVE YOU NOW AND HAVE YOU THEN AND EVEN WHEN YOU THINK HE'S GONE

YOU HITCH A RIDE ON HILLSIDE
AND AS HE TAKES YOU IN
YOU ASK HOW FAR HE'S GOING
AND HE ANSWERS ~ ALL THE WAY

YOU WANT TO SCREAM BUT HAVE NO VOICE
YOU WANT TO DIE BUT HAVE NO CHOICE
YOU'RE ONE OF HIS ~ YOU'RE THE DEMON'S BRIDE

MY LIFE'S ADDICTION

JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT ME TO
DOESN'T MEAN I'M GONNA CHANGE FOR YOU
EVEN THOUGH I STAND IN LINE FOR YOU
THAT DON'T MEAN I'LL LOSE MY MIND FOR YOU
AND EVEN THOUGH YOU GOT ME GOIN'
I'M STILL STAYIN'
CAUSE I'M LIKIN' WHAT YOU'RE DOIN' 

JUST BECAUSE YOU SAW MY SELFIE
DOESN'T MEAN YOU'VE GOT MY NUMBER
JUST  BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT MY NUMBER
DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO BLOW UP MY PHONE
SOMETIMES I JUST WANT TO BE ALONE

EVEN THOUGH YOU GOT ME GOIN'
I'M STILL STAYIN'
'CAUSE I'M LIKIN' WHAT YOU'RE DOIN' 

ISN'T LIFE A CONTRADICTION
AREN'T YOU MY LIFE'S ADDICTION
CAN'T YOU SEE I'LL ALWAYS COME BACK
COME BACK 
COME BACK
IT'S JUST A CIRCLE IN A CIRCLE GAME

JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT ME TO 
DOESN'T MEAN I'M GONNA CHANGE FOR YOU
EVEN THOUGH I STAND IN LINE FOR YOU
THAT DON'T MEAN I'LL LOSE MY MIND FOR YOU

EVEN THOUGH YOU GOT ME GOIN'
I'M STILL STAYIN'
'CAUSE I'M LIKIN' WHAT YOU'RE DOIN' 
IT'S JUST A CIRCLE IN A CIRCLE GAME
AND IT'S NOT A CONTRADICTION
YOU REALLY ARE MY LIFE'S ADDICTION
