I wanna see your hands
Wrapped around my neck
If I am born of blood, it tastes like shame
What’s one more drink?
And so I wash it down
Pseudo-thoughtfuls think
In substance, I drown
What’s one more pill?
And so I swallow away
My Shepherd works the corner, and to a vice I pray
My crisis averted, when Christ was aborted
And now we’re all killers, sinners, guilty
Washed in the river, filthy
Gutters, Virgin Mothers, left me here to suffer
Bleak night
Blaspheme
Left in the trenches of mangers
When you were a child
Raised in the trenches, born in the trenches
Came from the trenches, and no, we’ll never get out
We had youth (we had you)
Until we washed ourselves
In the river
Take me
I’m fucking filthy
Oh, you try and save me
But I’m too guilty
Guilty of nothing
