lyrics

Oh, to wake up
in a pool of blood
and a room full of worms.

I have done something horrible,
unspeakable,
I'm sure of it.

I'm just not myself,
I'm just not myself...

The nightcrawler swallowed a snake.
The snake was a shapeshifting sword
held in the hand of a tyrant,
then hung over Damocles head.

I’m so tired but I cannot sleep.
So I’m heading down to Mill Creek
and I’ll follow it down to the lake.
Gonna catch me a pike with my pole.
Take another one from this hole.

And the nightcrawler is numb to it all...

When he slides down the hook he will know,
he’ll wiggle around but he’ll know,
that his purpose in life has just changed.
And pleasure is tempered with pain.
Fortune/misfortune, the same.

And the nightcrawler is numb to it all.
The nightcrawler is numb to it all...

The nightcrawler swallowed a snake.
The snake was a shapeshifting sword,
once hung over Damocles head,
‘til he was content with his place in the court.

Now, if I were a god or a king,
I’d swallow the nightcrawler whole,
cast all my fears out into the lake
and catch me a pike with my pole.
Take another one from this hole.

And the nightcrawler is numb to it all.
The nightcrawler is numb to it all.
The nightcrawler is numb to it all.
The nightcrawler…

Horrible, unspeakable...
