Maniac Blues

Got a maniac on my trail
I’d kill him if I could
He watches me with killer eyes
His hands are in my blood
He’s a giant indestructible monster
I can feel his breath on me
I can shoot him down a million times
But he’s never gonna set me free

I’m weighted down beside him
He swims the ocean with me
We’re brothers in our purpose
And hated enemies
I was born to serve him
He makes my dreams come true
He’s my father and my mother
I’m in love and I am doomed.

Got a maniac in my bed.
His hate is in my dreams
I’m too tired of fighting
Too tired to go to sleep
I cut my throat on his edges
And I bleed from his wounds
If I’m running forever
I’m not running soon
