Vicarious Lyrics - 10,000 Days - Tool

Eye on the TV 

'cause tragedy thrills me 

Whatever flavour 

It happens to be like; 

Killed by the husband 

Drowned by the ocean 

Shot by his own son 

She used the poison in his tea 

And kissed him goodbye 

That's my kind of story 

It's no fun 'til someone dies

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Don't look at me like 

I am a monster 

Frown out your one face 

But with the other 

Stare like a junkie 

Into the TV 

Stare like a zombie 

While the mother 

Holds her child 

Watches him die 

Hands to the sky crying 

Why, oh why? 

'cause I need to watch things die 

From a distance 

Vicariously I, live while the whole world dies 

You all need it too, don't lie 

Why can't we just admit it? 

Why can't we just admit it? 

We won't give pause until the blood is flowing 

Neither the brave nor bold 

The writers of stories sold 

We won't give pause until the blood is flowing 

I need to watch things die 

From a good safe distance 

Vicariously I, live while the whole world dies 

You all feel the same so 

Why can't we just admit it? 

Blood like rain come down 

Drawn on grave and ground 

Part vampire 

Part warrior 

Carnivore and voyeur 

Stare at the transmittal 

Sing to the death rattle 

La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie 

Credulous at best, your desire to believe in angels in the hearts of men. 

Pull your head on out your hippy haze and give a listen. 

Shouldn't have to say it all again. 

The universe is hostile. so Impersonal. devour to survive. 

So it is. So it's always been. 

We all feed on tragedy 

It's like blood to a vampire 

Vicariously I, live while the whole world dies 

Much better you than I
