I've loved this song since its release so I decided to take a stab at covering it. This is my first recording using my new Starcaster which is why the guitars sound so much "beefier" than past uploads. I also added a synth bass and blended it with the rhythm guitar. I sort of half-assed the vocals as I thought it would end up being a throwaway take, but after cranking up the pitch correction I found myself thinking it was kind of similar to the effects of the original track so I let it be.

LYRICS:

I make it a point to keep it under wraps
So you don’t have to see 
My fingers hangin on your every word
Until they start bleed

I’m falling feet first 
Afraid of the crash
Would you hate it
If I braced for the worst

I’m on a tightrope
Trying keep it
Cool but this is 
Starting to hurt

And I’m
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted me to be
And I’m 
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted me to be, yeah 

I make it a point to be the main event
In every memory
I wanna be the one you think about
When you go to sleep

Manipulation
Running the show 
I’ll put out your lights
As you’re starting to glow
And every now and then
I’ll remember the way
That you packed up and hit the road 

And I’m
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted me to be 
And I’m
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted me to be, yeah

Not what you wanted
Not what you wanted
Not what you

The title for this song was derived from a phrase in a classic Graham Parker song, Don’t Ask Me Questions. It speaks to me about mortality and how it affects us as human beings. Serving for a while as one of our old band names, the title also dovetails neatly with the  Dracula/vampire story, which I used as the theme for the official video
