about

I wrote this song after reading a book about the 'BTK' serial killer from Park City, Kansas. It's about desires and obsessions controlling you to the point where you will risk everything to get what you need.

lyrics

drenched in her world,
i'm in love, with myself,
and breaking her heart, i'm not well and never lost,
when i wait around her in the dark before i start,
and i'll take anyone i want, it's never gone,
and yeah maybe she won't like it
that's no reason to keep fighting it
fighting, fighting, i can't fight it, fight it
faking it all and closing off, is just game
and taking her thoughts and killing them off
is just insane
when i wait around her in the dark before i start.
and i'll take anyone i want i'm never gone.
and yeah maybe she won't like it that's no reason to keep fighting it.
fighting, fighting, i keep fighting, fighting i can't fight it.
other people they won't mind it
i had a mind but i can't find it
with a reason to keep fighting
i need to feel something i'm not buying
and other people they don't mind it
i had a mind but i can't find it
with a reason to keep fighting
i need it, i need it.
drenched in her blood i'm not loved, i'm by myself
and played with her heart taking it all
i'm always lost
when i wait around her in the dark
before i start
and i'll take anyone at all
i'm never gone
and yeah maybe she won't like it
that's no reason to keep fighting it
fighting fighting i can't fight it
i keep fighting fighting i can't fight it.
