lyrics

I am a monster, I am a ghost!

Well you might say it is her fault,
and she deserved to be raped like that.
But in my mind I should kill you, straight as that.
But I would be no better than you.

I am foolish boy, I am a sinner!

I have imagined the power in my hands,
blood stained and filthy hands.
Part of myself, not a small part, enjoyed the thoughts;
the hateful thoughts too dark for words.

This anger; where does it, how does it come to me?
How can I ever judge that which I am capable of?

Fall down on your knees
Pray loud, hope for forgiveness,
for all mankind is drowning in sin.

Bound in flesh we see all the lies;
and, dying, we see how they bind.
Rend our souls while we take their lives.
Innocence dies on the altar of mankind!

Again they strike like knives of white light.
The shame of my desires is toxic.

Get out of my head!
Cut out of my head!
Get out of my head!
Get out of my head!
Chain me up! Never!
Let me out! Never!
Keep them safe from me!
Keep me safe from me!

Fall down on your knees!
Pray loud, hope for forgiveness,
for all mankind is drowning in sinful arrogance
and a hatred so pure it rips us apart and renders us...

(Mindless. Heartless. Loveless. Soulless.)
