Nosferatu Man Lyrics - Spiderland - Slint

I live in a castle 

I am a prince 

On days I try 

To please my queen 

Soon as I start to smile 

My smiling queen 

Who sits across the table 

By the food she made 

Like a bat I flushed the girl 

And I flew out my back door 

And I came to no one no more 

She ran without glances 

And railed like a red coal train 

Eyelids are open 

When the sun is high 

I slip away from my queen's 

Grey state 

I can be settled down 

and be doing just fine 

Until I heard that old train 

Rolling down the line 

With the light she disappeared 

And set me in a whirl 

And I hope that beautiful girl 

I set a fire burning 

And I railed on through the night 

I set a fire burning 

And I railed on through the night 

She peeked around the corner 

She offered me her hand 

My teeth touched her skin 

Then she was gone again 

Now my queen is fine 

In her early grave 

After that girl I'll keep her warm 

There's nothing more to save
