The track's impeccable groove, melody and creepy/humorous lyrics have made it one of the bands' live favorites...the band's imagination took it to a whole new level in this studio version

lyrics

Sunday night I was watching TV when I saw you smiling at me
That's when I knew that it had to be true...that you had me and I had you
You read my letters it has to be. Your next obsession is me you see…

..that I made it perfectly clear that I would do anything
You've been toying with me, walking around with every other guy

Waking up at 2a.m, with your eyes they're stuck to my face
Singing high at the top of your lungs the songs you've written only for me
Well I got something special for you if you care to see it

I ‘secretly’ made a shrine for you in my closet
You have made the mistake of taking too long to come and visit

and I spent all night waiting for you to arrive
But time is NOT ON YOUR SIDE!!!!

Well I finally found the payoff to all my troubles
You'll be here with me until the end of time
But I, I made the mistake of telling the world about us
Now I'm rotting away thinking of all the times when you were mine...mine...MINE!!
