The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

You've got it good

You're cruel to everyone

You get their feelings

And you shake them 'til you're all alone

You had the time

You had the motive now

Pretend it hurts and they run to you from miles around



Dressed to kill

By the hands that never will

Looks appeal

To what the feelings don't reveal.



And I can't penetrate the lies

But the damage you do

Is written across your eyes

So don't say you love me

And I can't delegate the blame

But it all comes out sounding just the same.

So don't try to touch me.



You turn them on

You switch it off again

A stream of lovers hanging rotting at your door again.

You pull the strings

You've had them dance for you.

You build them up

'til they think they've got a bone to chew.



You steal to live

From the hands that never give

Look within

Through the doors that don't cave in.



And I can't penetrate the lies

But the damage you do

Is written across your eyes

So don't say you love me

And I can't delegate the blame

But it all comes out sounding just the same.

So don't try to touch me.



(The words you said just broke in two)



And I can't penetrate the lies

But the damage you do

Is written across your eyes

So don't say you love me

And I can't delegate the blame

But it all comes out sounding just the same.

So don't try to touch me.



(Is it somehow rewarding, or some kind of warning?)

Oh L'Amour

Broke my heart

Now I'm aching for you

Mon amour

What's a boy in love

Supposed to do



Looking for you

You were looking for me

Always reaching for you

You were too blind to see

Oh love of my heart

Why leave me alone

I'm falling apart

No good on my own



Oh L'Amour

Broke my heart

Now I'm aching for you

Mon amour

What's a boy in love

Supposed to do



Why throw it away

Why walk out on me

I just live for the day

For the way it should be

There once was a time

Had you here by my side

You said I wasn't your kind

Only here for the ride



Oh L'Amour

Broke my heart

Now I'm aching for you

Mon amour

What's a boy in love

Supposed to do



No emotional ties

You don't remember my name

I lay down and die

I'm only to blame

Oh love of my heart

It's up to you now

You tore me apart

I hurt inside-out



Oh L'Amour

Broke my heart

Now I'm aching for you

Mon amour

What's a boy in love

Supposed to do



Oh L'Amour

Broke my heart

Now I'm aching for you

Mon amour

What's a boy in love

Supposed to do

I never wrote you a love song

somehow words could not express what I needed to say.

and so I never wrote you a love song

and now its much, much too late 'cause you've gone away



But I will build this monument

to remember all the love we once had

and I'll close my eyes and make it how it used to be

I swear I never stopped loving you with everything I am

and it hurts so much to think you stopped loving me

you stopped loving me...



So I wish I'd had written you a love song

and somehow you understood what it feels to be me

because the Angel loves the sprite forever

and does it unconditionally



But I will build this monument

to remember all the love we once had

and I'll close my eyes and make it how it used to be

I swear I never stopped loving you with everything I am

and it hurts so much to think you stopped loving me

you stopped loving me...

Born with all you need

And need is all you have

Left out in the dark alone

To see what you're made of



Nobody gives a hand

When you're in deepest pain

Crying both your eyes out

And swallow all your pride



I'm longing for the day

That you return to me again

And see me in the brightest light

That you have ever seen



With my heart open wide

To love you once again

Like I have done before

But you chose to ignore



I'll wait here for evermore

I'll wait here forever and ever more

I'll wait here until you return to me

I'll wait here for evermore



The path to me is winding

But you will always notice

Some presence of me around

When you want to see



There will be a time

That we will never part

For this is my biggest gift to you:

We were never two

Come on and lay with me

Come on and lie to me

Tell my you love me

Say Im the only one



Experiences have a lasting impression

But words once spoken

Dont mean a lot now

Belief is the way

The way of the innocent

And when I say innocent

I should say naive



So lie to me

But do it with sincerity

Make me listen

Just for a minute

Make me think

Theres some truth in it



Come on and lay with me

Come on and lie to me

Tell my you love me

Say Im the only one



Promises made for convenience

Arent necessarily

What we need

Truth is a word

Thats lost its meaning

The truth has become

Merely half truth



So lie to me

Like they do it in the factory

Make me think

That the end of the day

Some great reward

Weil be coming my way

What good is a photograph of you?

Every time I look at it

It makes me feel blue



What use is a souvenir of something

We once had

When all it ever does is

Make me feel bad?



I wish I could tear it up

But then again I haven't the guts

I wish I could throw it on the fire

I wish I could

But to say I would

I'd be a liar



What good is a color print of a little baby doll

When just one little glance is enough to make me feel dull?



I wish I would misplace it

But then I take such good care of it

I wish it would disappear

I say I wish

But then I relish it being here



What good is a photograph of you

Every time I look at it

It makes me feel blue

You're time wasting again

Biting your nails like you were sixteen

Putting up your little walls

When emotion's around

Leave your little heart

In the lost and found

Your friends would die laughing

If they saw you this way

Even though they cry the same tears everyday

Where was your heart

When you needed it most?

Hand in hand with your innocence

Gave up the ghost



But it doesn't do to tell

You're at your best

When you're living hell

Just put on your hard face

You know you do that so well

Thank god you wore

Your waterproof make-up today

And who gives a damn about him anyway?

To him you're a body

And to hell with the mind

But you get the same schtick from his type all the time

Just a couple of drinks

And they've got you tonight

And you know the sad thing

Is that they're often right



Where was your heart

When you needed it most?

Hand in hand with your innocence

Gave up the ghost



They take hold of your heart

And they spit it right out

Make a show of their conquest

When their friends are about

Your ego deflated

You gave up the fight

And became the good-time-had-by-all-every-night



And where was your heart

When you needed it most?

Hand in hand with your innocence

Gave up the ghost



No comfort of beds

Or the softness of sheets

Just the back of a car

Sprawled across the back seats

And he'll just not give up

And he's messed up your head

A dish in the disco

But a pig in the bed



So you build up a false love affair anyway

Photocopy soap opera stories all day

Where it all ends up fine

And it all ends in church

And the girl looks like you

And she never really gets hurt



And where was your heart

When you needed it most?

Hand in hand with your innocence

Gave up the ghost
