lyrics

You float along the surface of your time
You think you’re so upstanding, you’re so fine
When no one’s around, you reveal your true self
A sick and twisted thing creeps in with stealth

it seems there’s an incurable darkness in your soul
A dirty little being, not even you can truly know
The things you do make you so feel fucking ashamed
That you curse the very day that you were named

You know you’re in a race against decay
Got to find the cure tor this sickness some way
You don’t want to die having lived a secret sin
At the door of the eternal, won’t you please let me in?

I wish you well in slaying your inner beast
And your worst instincts upon which it does feast
The evil in my mind threatens to consume me
There’s no way out of this hell that I can see

I’m knocking on the door of heaven,
So desperately, hysterically, Oh Lord can’t you see?
What did you expect, when you trapped us in this life?
Doomed to years of suffering, years of strife.
