[Verse 1]
First daddy died, then Mikey died
Why am I so dead inside?
Maggots filled this head of mine
My tongue’s fly paper to catch the flies
I spit 'em out towards a wretched sky
Water tastes like insecticide
Watch it take out my sense of pride
It's a genocide of my gentle side
They're so surgical with that mask
So I merge it all in my path
No merciful in my laugh
I am a monster, I can never be altered
Burning the altars, watch ‘em all purge with the vultures
Eating away, one day they all turn into sulfur
[Hook]
Dead in the head I was born like this, born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this, born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this, I was born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this
[Verse 2]
When they burn the bodies I smell the smoke
From the Hell below
When they turn to zombies to sell their souls
To the highest bidder, I'm high and bitter
And this crypt of mine, no kryptonite, just cryptic minds
Crimson like when I draw the lines
A foggy life leaves me mystified
In this dream of mine full of dramamine
When I wanna sing but my screams are quiet
And my screams were quite demons in choir
Demons require all charlatans
Harlots in my audience
Watch the Harlequins all get sawed to bits
Deadliness is next to godliness, right?
[Hook]
Dead in the head I was born like this, I was born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this, I was born like this
Dead in the head I was born like this
[Verse 3]
Winter in Hell when the wind turns to hail
Hailed when they win then wince when they fail
The wind in the sails all went to the sales
I'm assailing against them
Scaling the fence with nails in the wrists
I'm impaled from the sales they pitch
Which pales in comparison
Sinking again in the stale and the kitsch
Been drinking a fifth watching Tales From The Crypt
Yeah, I lift the bar, never star-struck when I hit the stars
Never start something I can't complete
These heavy heart hung in the gallery
These gallows swing, these gallows swing
They feed us shit like the Salos sing
These gallows swing, these gallows swing
Sparrows sink like the Caroling
My God, they are spooky as Heaven
More than you could imagine
Beautiful black, boozes in tact
Tack 'till abuse, induce ipecac
A funeral mass, I won't attend
I choose to be absent
I don't pretend that I don't believe in ghosts
That you could be that, yeah but you could be that
[Outro]
(Spectres) Ghosts of themselves, but they chose it themselves
Made a hole for the Hell
Keep my eyes low when I know they're around
(Spectres) Ghosts of themselves, but they chose it themselves
Made a hole for the Hell
Keep my eyes low when I know they're around
(Spectres) Ghosts of themselves, but they chose it themselves
Made a hole for the Hell
Keep my eyes low when I know they're around
(Spectres) Ghosts of themselves, but they chose it themselves
Made a hole for the Hell
Keep my eyes low when I know...
(Dead in the head I was born like this, I was born like this)
