lyrics

My heart fades out and my desires grow young
Memories leave of all the protests I've sung
My eyes glue to a grand exploitation
It's something I oppose but just add inflation
My shame finds it's way all over my body
Poking with care but causing a tear like a child's hobby
My mouth opens and I look away
And I return to the sick and the sane
Gasping for breath
It's bitter and salty
Wishing for death
I'm always so sorry
Children exploited All mine I cast
I am just always
Felating my past
But what can anyone expect of me?
A horrible coping, done young, done mindlessly
And predisposition – the largest trauma source
I've tried so hard to change the course
I hopelessly find myself looking at it
Blood starts flowing into something sick
From my eyes, to my skin, and down the tub drain
I'm so sorry I help fuel all this pain
I'm so sorry
I feel insane
This skin's a sin
But there's just such an innocence
I'm craving the past
It's all about me
I'm bathing the past
With shameful semen
