lyrics

I didn't used to be this way
I didn't used to be this way
I didn't used to be
Used to be this way

My tie smiles for me
My wallet thinks for me
My phone speaks for me
I didn't used to be this way

They say I'll live forever
They say I'll live forever
They say I'll live forever
They say I'm never gonna die

They tamed me
And they named me
They trained me
And they paid me

They explained
They were gonna ordain me
Then they laid me
Out on the rug

And they drained
They drained my veins of blood
They sucked me dry

I know I took it bravely
There was no one there to save me
My bridges were burned

When they come on back to wake me
I'm not afraid of what I'm craving
I lick my lips

I wake as the daylight's fading
I can see my future plainly
It's glowing bright

Spin me around to the window
Tell me what I need to sell
I'm getting kind of hungry
So point me towards that smell

Through the whole in your soul
Your neck, wrist or thigh
I'm gonna suck you dry
I'll suck you dry
I'll suck you dry...

I'm gonna suck you dry!
And I'm never gonna die!

So just give it up, and close your eyes
I'm gonna suck you, gonna suck you dry
Through the whole in your neck, your wrist or thigh
I'm never ever, never ever gonna die

I'm gonna suck you dry!
And I'm never gonna die!
Cause I'll suck you dry!
Through the whole in your soul, your neck or your thigh!

Please drive a stake through my heart
Before I tear you, tear your apart
You better drive a stake through my heart
Before I tear you, tear you apart
And I suck you dry
Or else I'm never gonna die

about

Tyler Taylor Boulder, Colorado

Hi, I'm Tyler. You may know me from my band, The Amends. I'm pretty sure you must if you've found your way here. I made this site so that I could have a place to quietly share my older songs (ones I mostly wrote before founding The Amends with Drew) with anyone who's interested. I recorded and played these myself, so forgive the varying sound quality. All songs are technically free. ... more
