I see lust in your eyes
I sense thirst in your throat
I can taste desperation, taste it on
Taste it on your…
No forgiveness, not today
No salvation anyway
Coming close just to come away
I’m a martyr in the very worst way
Misused, abused, and dejected
Sanctified and neglected
No forgiveness not today
No salvation anyway
I come crawling to you on broke’ and bended knee
Strip me down, reduce me to a sainted whore
Mollify. Objectify. Never die in your eyes.
Traumatize. Sensitize. Sexualize to your distaste.
I can’t break free from this slavery
I stand before you split in two
A dichotomy made by you
With all your love and all your hate
But all this time I never wanted this
But all this time I never wanted…
No forgiveness, not today
No salvation anyway

I’ll die with a crown of thorns upon my head
I’ll die crucified to your bed
I’ll die with words that were never said
I’ll die, I’ll die…
I’ll die, it’s not sentimental
A hard life, it’s not detrimental
My life, it’s not sentimental
I’ll die, I’ll die with no name
No name.
Feel the cuts, feel the cuts, feel the cuts, feel the cuts on me.
My life, it’s not sentimental
Hard life, it’s not detrimental
I’ll die, it’s not sentimental
I’ll die, I’ll die…
Hard life, it’s not sentimental
My life, it’s not detrimental
I’ll die, it’s not sentimental
I’ll die, I’ll die with no name
No name.

We are no race. We are no gender.
We are no faith. We are no nation.
Kill your ego, your pride must die.
Material reality isn’t for you and me.
Egoic identity is the enemy.
Kill your ego, your pride must die.

You don’t know me or what I’ve got in-store.
All this hate inside keeps burning me up.
You silly apes underestimate this court jester with ridicule.
Mock me all you want, this time the jokes on you.
You don’t know me or what I’ve got in-store.
All this hate inside just keeps burning me up.
Burns you up.
I’ve got a fire inside you never knew was alive.
I got a fire within.
I’ve got a power inside you never knew was alive.
I got a power within.

I’m the blackness inside you seek to drive away
The sword to sever your ever still talking head
All your selfishness, all your ignorance
Is a pestilence that I cannot endure.
You. Pollute. My world.
I try to understand your whole paradigm and after time, I let you bleed me dry of all my empa-empathy till I have nothing left to give.
Till I can’t separate myself from all the pain I feel inside, from all the hate that you give to me.
From all the hate that you give to me.
You. Pollute. My world.
Everything that you do cuts me up. Leaves me raw.
And then you spit in my wounds. You spit in my wounds.
I just wanna hurt you. Make you feel like I do.
I just wanna hurt you. Make you feel like I do.
I just wanna hurt you. Show you my world view.
I just wanna hurt you. Make you feel like I do.
Like I do.

Your existence vicarious and not what it seems
Your mind and your image are cracked like your screen
Love’s an illusion. Life is a dream.
Coming undone at the memes.
Disconnect from it all. Disconnect the virtual.
Disconnect from it all. Disconnect, save your soul.
You’re too noxious to have a shred of empathy
Polarizing echo-chamber based sensory
Pretentiously losing touch with reality.
Too plugged-in to understand me.
Disconnect from it all. Disconnect the virtual.
Disconnect from it all. Disconnect, save your soul.
Disconnect.
Pull the plug out right now, right now. Pull the plug out right now.

Life is nothing but a thread.
Cursed by fate’s weaving hand, you’re always lost inside
Emotive yet resigned. Joy is but a word.
Life is nothing but a thread.
Haunted by sadness, despair resides in you.
It frightens me to know that you’d cut your own…
Cord.
I will give all I have just to change…Just to save you.
I wish I could take all of your suffering, all of your affliction, and dissolve it into me.
Why can’t you feel anything else but this?
I want to know what it’s like to be you.
Why can’t you feel anything else but this?
I just want you to hold on to life.
