	作曲 : Murray, Nichol
	As a child
	Monsters always haunted your panicked dreams
	This time you're the vampire
	And though it's cruel reality
	You're still trapped in a suffocating fantasy
	Living out your most gruesome reverie
	When will you let me wake you
	From this painful dreaming
	Don't you realize you're killing in your sleep
	With claws of carelessness and fangs of apathy
	Ripping holes in the flesh
	Of the people you once esteemed
	Just to smell the freshness
	Of their final breaths and their blood
	Yours went stale a long time ago
	You'll change your addiction
	To appease your conviction
	You've built quite the tolerance
	For your previous obsession
	But your new devotion
	Requires some compassion
	In the face of diversity
	Your tolerance is lacking
	Now you've indulged
	Your feral temptations
	You've awakened
	And you say that you've had a vision of enlightenment
	That you wish to be cleansed and saved
	Wash yourself clean in a blessed stream
	But there's no such thing
	And it's never that easy
	Innocence can't be bought with a confession
	You can't just empty your sins into a pit of salvation
	The guilt eats you just as you devoured your family
	Why do you need a savior
	when you could rescue yourself from the fear that drives your hate
	You'll change your addiction
	To appease your conviction
	You've built quite the tolerance
	For your previous obsession
	But your new devotion
	Requires some compassion
	In the face of diversity
	Your tolerance is lacking
	What did I do to deserve such silence
	Such violence on your quest for self-destruction
	You destroy us all as you feast on the last of your own blood
	And taste the venom left behind
	You consume my desiccated heart
	And drain the consciousness from my mind
	Take pity on me
	Your devoted victim
	Take pity on me
	This sacrifice won't set you free
	Beware of the soul-saver
	He's not your friend
	Why do you ask His forgiveness
	I'm the one you've mistreated
	Now ask yourself
	Are you truly born again
	Your pedestal reeks of death
	A thick film of denial now coats your veins
	There are hardly any left to penetrate
	You had a life that refused to wait
	For you to make another mistake
	You're bound to make another mistake
