Suck

Well hello, my name is Bryan and I’m quite a normal person, until the day I was bitten by a bat.
After that, I started acting a little bit different, started sleeping in and wearing lots of black.
Then I went walking around the streets at midnight, looking for someone I could devour--I mean enjoy.
I came across a lady dancing in the moonlight, and I said,
“All I need is a taste of you, I promise not to suck you dry!”
So I took her home and put her in a coffin, ‘til the day was done, and the night returned,
Then I opened up her lid and gave her a little taste of me, she took me in, and said she wanted MORE!
So we went walking around the streets at midnight, looking for someone we could devour – I mean enjoy.
We came across a dude lying bleeding in the middle of the street and I said,
All you need is a taste of him, careful not to suck him!
All you need is a taste of him, careful not to suck him dry”
The coroner came a zooming’ down the street, Put this dude’s body in his hearse,
I said, “Man, I don’t think he’s dead, he just needs a blood transfusion.
And we’ll take some too if you don’t mind. If you don’t mind!!
The coroner gave two quarts of blood to the victim, and gave us both a quart to share.
The dude woke up and he thanked us for saving him. He said, “How can I repay you?” I said, “We’d love a meal!”
So we all went walking around the streets at midnight, looking for someone we could devour—I mean enjoy.
We came across a gang of rustic barbarians, the dude said,
“Those were the ones who beat me up,” I just wanna see them….
I don’t care if you drink them up, I just wanna see them….”
So we completely drank them up, I guess we meant to suck them dry.

The Badguy

I remember u told me once u thought that I was bad, a wrecking ball of all your hopes and dreams that u once had,
Now I understand ur going back 2 what u know, calling me the cause of all ur disappointing woe.
I am not the badguy u make me out 2b, I am not the one who caused ur pain and misery,
U cannot determine who’s correct and who is false, Ur beliefs are tangled in a web of lying thoughts.
I am not the badguy, no.
I remember u told me once u thought that I was rude, calling me a maniac, a parasite, a fool,
Now I’m down at the end of my rope and I can’t seem 2 let go, falling down a million steps into a darkened woe.
I am not the bad guy that u once thought I was, I am not the one who drove u into darkened loss
U cannot decipher who is foul and who is fair, Ur thoughts are tainted by the toxins in the air
Like a knife I cut into Ur skin and slice out the bullcrap and give u the new rap,
Like a running back I jump into Ur head and knock out the old crud and give u the new bud,
I am trying to kill Ur ignorance, Ur arrogance, Ur lack of sense,
I am trying to end Ur apathy Ur vanity, Ur naivety,
I am trying to reach Ur higher self, Ur mental wealth, Ur guardian elf,
I am trying to earn Ur deep respect, Ur fellowship, Ur intellect.
I am not the badguy, I thought I’d let u know, I am not the one who caused Ur disappointed woe.
U cannot distinguish who is yang and who is yin, Ur anger is intensified by the poisons you take in.
I remember u told me once that u thought I should leave, U said I was a bastard without any empathy,
Now Im down at the crossroads, and I dont kno what 2 choose, youre blamin me for everything, no matter what I do.
I am not the Badguy, I’m trying to help u out, If only u would let me, free Ur mind from doubt,
I am not gonna tell u, what u want to hear, And I’m not gonna lie to you neither, cos what I give is real.

What U Believe

Get away from me--Leave me alone!
I don’t want 2 argue with Ur theories anymore
I don’t want 2B bothered by Ur rants of faith; and Ur disregard for the
Pain Ur causing other people who don’t agree with U
Acting like U care 2 listen, really wanting my submission
To Ur fallacy of Lies and Hate;
I won’t accept, I don’t accept What U Believe! (no no no!)
I believe what I want to believe and that’s all there is 2 say!
U don’t even know me so don’t U tell me anymore.
U want 2 B in total control of my thoughts, desires, hopes and dreams,
All w/out considering another point of view.
Always trying to gain admission, for your everlasting vision
Always trying 2 cover up the facts;
Get away from me--Leave me alone!
I’m tired of being pushed around and I won’t take it anymore
U don’t even know what it’s like, and U take and U take and U take and U take,
W/out regard 4 for anyone Ur hurting along the way.
Pushing Ur misguided vision, driving me into submission,
Begging 4 money, stealing with Lies and Hate;

Troll

There’s a troll who lives up over the ridge, and at night he comes down under the bridge, There he waits until u try to cross, then he jumps out and rips his clothes off.
He’s a troll! A dirty drunk, He’s a troll! A skanky skunk,
A crusty scab lurking down by the road, and he’s hornier than a horny toad.
If u scream out loud then it’s his delight, if u run away then he’ll chase u all night,
If u stand your ground and you look in his eye, then he’ll turn his azz around and he’ll say good bye.
He’s a troll! A dorky dick, He’s a troll! A perverted prick
A crusty scab lurking down by the road, and he’s creepier than a bag o’ bones.
Now one night that ol’ troll he came out after me, as I was crossing that bridge at a quarter to three,
He said, “gimme all yer money, and I’ll let u across,” then he unzipped his pants and whipped out his boss!
I said, “hey nice lunch, wont u give me a bite?” I showed him my fangs, he ran away in fright,
I followed him down into the alleyway, there I drank his blood, but he got away.

I was born a person, four hundred years ago,
Then one night, a bat flew down, and bit me on the toe,
Ever since, I’ve been a creepy prince, with nothing much to say,
Except that I love ya and I promise not to drain ya, so don’t u run away! Run away.
I luv u dear see there’s nothing to fear, I’m just your friendly neighborhood vampire
So don’t u run away, cos all I want is to play, and I promise not to suck u dry.
Now I live in a castle, on Stroshein Boulevard,
At night I jump out and bite you, now isn’t that ubsard?
And all I want to do is to play with you, so don’t worry you will see,
All I need is a taste of you, and then I’ll set u free! Set u free.
But if you resist me, and kick and scream and fight,
I might be inclined, to take more than one bite,
And if you are really nasty, I’ll just have to do you in,
Its Nature’s way of balancing things, just like the Yang and Yin!

Sorry

Something went wrong last night at the bar,
I had a few drinks and went a bit too far,
An illustrious feeling took me in,
A lustrious feeding did begin.
I’m sorry I did what I did last night,
I’m sorry I sipped what I sipped last night,
I didn’t mean to make u cry,
I didn’t mean to suck u dry.
There must have been something in the rain,
There must have been something coursing thru your veins,
I only took a little sip,
Next thing I knew, there was not a drip.
I’m sorry, I took what I took last night,
I’m sorry, I snook what I snook last night,
I didn’t mean to make u cry,
I didn’t mean to suck u dry.
You screamed as I punctured your skin
You cried out as I tried to take you in,
So good you were, I just couldn’t stop
‘Til I had drinkin’ every drop.

Coyote

Yesternyte I morphed into a coyote, and howled all night at the moon.
I was calling 4 u my moonlight starlet, but alas you did not come, but alas you did not come.
I howled from twilight til the break of day, disengaged from the night-time throng,
I called out to you thru the Cosmos, but alas you did not come.
Then I thought I heard a rustling, coming from o’er yonder hill,
I stared out into the thickening fog, for a silhouette against the moonlit air,
I cried out louder into the darkness, “Elusive one please come unto me!”
I saw the figure turn its head and walk away, into the misty moors from whence it came.
Elusive one how could u leave me here?!
Elusive one how could u leave me here?!
When the sun comes up o’er yonder hill, I will stay my ground and not recede
The morning lite will scar my skin and face, and will char my eternal remains.
It was each moment an eternity, marred by hopelessness and fear,
It wasn’t until the bell tower tolled 6 am, that I knew this was the end.
I cried out louder into the darkness! Elusive one, please come unto me!
I saw the figure turn its head and walk away, into the misty moors from whence it came
Elusive one how could u leave me here?!
Elusive one how could u leave me here?!
If I cannot be with you by the lite of the moon, then I shall not live another day
For an eternal life is worth nothing, without you to share my stay, without you to share my stay.
