Lyrics
Dreamcatcher in the rearview mirror
Hasn't caught a thing yet
Twenty dollars in souvenirs
Anything's worth trying

To stay out of your nightmares
Few hours in your dream last night
Always end up dying
You said because of course I did

Always managed to move in
Right next to cemeteries
And never far from hospitals
I don't know what that tells you about me

Pulling thorns out of my palm
Working midnight surgery
When you cut a hole into my skull
Do you hate what you see?
Like I do
