Before I met you
Kittens were singin' in the trees
And mermaids were ticklin' my knees
And life was a lovey larp
Before I met you
Angels were feedin' me cherry pies
Until you opened up my eyes to things most dark
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls of nasty evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to places where I ruminate
On nasty evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my minds been intertwined
With gory thoughts and there's nothing I can do
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's all because of you
♪
Before I met you
I'd never dropped or popped no pills
I wasn't all hopped up on chills
And life was stars and dreams
Sometimes I'd like to
Go back to the way it used to be
But then you take a hold of me and
I need to smell those scars and hear those screams
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls of nasty evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to places where I ruminate
On nasty evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my minds been intertwined
With gory thoughts and there's nothing I can do
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's all because of you
And ooh ooh ooh I didn't know what I was missin'!
And ooh ooh ooh that wasn't nothin' I was missin'!
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls of nasty evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to places where I ruminate
On nasty evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind

With gory thoughts and there's nothing I can do
