I've made my pleas to your innocence
I lost myself in your innocence
So tell me how I'm to end it all
Tell me how I am supposed to fall
You took from me all I ever had
I toiled while you sat there getting fat
Until you handed to me the knife
I swore to you I would give my life

Your temple, I stained with crimson blood
I sank to my neck in your ego-mud

I worked for you till I cracked my soul
I signed my dreams o'er to your control
This knife I hold in my grateful hands
I'll spill my blood on your sacred sands
Your circus always surrounded me
Your eyes made blind so I couldn't see
You said pride should come before a fall
I never had any pride at all

Wall of pain: how you can make me bleed
Wall of anger: O how I hate this greed
I tried so hard to ignore the pain
When it healed you just made it hurt again
Madness rains down like a hurricane
Mental shrapnel fills my head with pain
Liar!
You said you'd rescue me
Instead, all you have done is infected me

Your eyes burn bright like a napalm rose
Your revelation in evil grows
So sick…my heart melts out through my skin
I'm drunk on the liquor of your twisted sins
Life drags on, longer than it should be
Not till death's kiss will I be so free
Morality, bound like chains on my wrists
Once I was fine…but now I'm pissed

Up on your throne you command my love
Let loose your wolves, such a fragile dove
Mind games that rage and then mutilate
Build walls 'gainst a soul, try to barricade
You fucked yourself just as much as me
I'm so diseased I will never see
You cannot heal what you never touch
You lied to me, you never gave a fuck

And so I take this knife in hand
To escape from you to thy promised land
Will I taste heaven? Or suffer hell?
Or remain here forever in your show and tell
Black wings of death shroud me like a cloth
Pain flames to me like a lamp and moth
I'll rot forever up upon your shelf
You fucked with me
Now go fuck yourself

Pain monger
All that I ever knew
The only life that I had was you

Motherfucker
I would have died for you
The only god that I knew was you
