lyrics
What part of no didn't you understand?
I'd rather sell my soul than grab ahold of your hand
I put the fear in your heart, you put the thought in my mind
Promise I'll leave you alone while I'm robbing you blind
Oh you thought I'd brighten up your life
But it's just the glow from the edge of the knife!
I really wish that I could love like I used to do
But I can't shake all these awful things I wanna do to you
I got a feeling that we'll never lock eyes again
After the killing and everything
I'm kinda hoping that we fall off the earth sometime soon
I'm pounding tablets for the new world order, sometimes I can't see past the grey
We must have set the sky on fire
We started running for cover now we're under the wire
I'm pleading ignorance with the blood on my sleeve
You called me up to bitch and then you begged me to leave
Oh there's something buried in my skin
It's like a worm in my brain, It keeps on tunnelling in
And I can't fucking stop, no I can't fucking stop
Break through the serenity with the sound of a shot
I swear I tried to change my ways
But I think I kinda like it this way
Yeah!
So I think I'll feed the beast tonight
I'd rather sell my soul than grab ahold of your hand
I put the fear in your heart, you put the thought in my mind
Promise I'll leave you alone while I'm robbing you blind
Oh you thought I'd brighten up your life
But it's just the glow from the edge of the knife!
I really wish that I could love like I used to do
But I can't shake all these awful things I wanna do to you
I got a feeling that we'll never lock eyes again
After the killing and everything
I'm kinda hoping that we fall off the earth sometime soon
I'm pounding tablets for the new world order, sometimes I can't see past the grey
We must have set the sky on fire
We started running for cover now we're under the wire
I'm pleading ignorance with the blood on my sleeve
You called me up to bitch and then you begged me to leave
Oh there's something buried in my skin
It's like a worm in my brain, It keeps on tunnelling in
And I can't fucking stop, no I can't fucking stop
Break through the serenity with the sound of a shot
I swear I tried to change my ways
But I think I kinda like it this way
Yeah!
So I think I'll feed the beast tonight
