Out of the night shift
Darkness is my gift
Didn't know tight-knit
Too shipwrecked to try it

They say I'm no villain misunderstood
They say in the blackout there is good

Bloody knuckle red in my head
I found new way to be bled
They taught me home, no more alone
I stared at the blinking phone

Family is within reach
Something they don't teach
They called me a leech
Baptized myself with bleach

They say I'm no villain misunderstood
They say in the blackout there is good

I started over in the red
A fist and a hate and a jacket made of lead
The black hearted queen is dead

Here's just one last thing
You taught me priceless ain't shoestring
The mocking bird took the ring
But I gave it the words to sing
