    Dm
I'm in the room without a light
     F              C
The room without a view
     Dm
I'm here for one more treacherous night
  F                 C
Another night with you
   Dm
It tortures me to move my hands
     F            C
To try to move at all
    Dm
And pulled
My skin so tight it screams
       F
And screams and screams
     C
And pulls some more

Chorus:
Em
Hanging like this
        G
Like a vampire bat
Em
Hanging like this
        G
Hanging on your back
     Dm           F C
I'm helpless again

My body is cut and broken
It's shattered and sore
My body is cut wide open
I can't stand anymore

It tortures me to move my hands
To try to move at all
And pulled
My skin so tight it screams
And screams and screams
And screams some more

Chorus:
Hanging like this
Like a vampire bat
Hanging like this
Hanging on your back

Oh, it's torture
And I'm almost there
It's torture, oh
And I'm almost there

It's torture, oh, ho-ho
It's torture, oh, ho-ho
It's torture, oh, ho-ho
It's torture, oh, ho-ho
But I'm almost there
