I’m a vessel, aren’t I?
Circumventing hand me down lies
You don’t really want to mess with me
No you don’t even really want to mess with me tonight
I’m a restless sitter
A sore loser and a lousy winner
When I’m deep in my head I lose the world around me
Will I do it wrong or will I even do it at all
You got me with my back against the wall
But I can’t speak when I’m feeling small
I’m a vessel and dimensional
The sum of all the parts not wholly aware of
Cure me with a tender touch
We’re facing it while we’re young
Cause it won’t leave us alone
I’ll try to be here for you
Ohhhh ooooh whooo am I when no one’s around me
Am I real at all
Until someone else has found me
I’m a vessel aren’t I?
A bleeding heart for all the vampires
I’m sharpening my stakes and drawing lines
Siphoning out only what is mine
Spending all my time forgetting time
You don’t really wanna mess with me
No you don’t really even want to mess with me tonight
