I sold my soul

So long ago

And now I'm alone

Here

In the palace

Of madness and sadness and bone

And she said

To the ghosts in her head

I will find the edge

I will force my fingers in

I will sip from the slit

I will rip you to shreds

I will rip you to shreds

Rape the nun

Kill the saint

Wear their skin

There is no

There is no

Way to escape

And I know

The road of truth is lined

With crucified criminals and suicides

So maybe i'll just cut my throat

Maybe I'll make you smile while I choke

Hybrid creature of decay

There is no possible

Way to escape

Rape the nun

Kill the saint

Wear their skin

(there's no way to escape)

"Yesterday upon the stair, I met a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. I wish that man would go away

I wish that man would go away

I wish that man would go away

I wish that man would go away

I wish that man would go..."

Shadow man standing in my room

Smearing his conspiracies for me to consume

Shadow man has a plan, just wait and see

You'll all be sorry for fucking with me

(come out and play)

Shadow man, shadow man

Please go away

Shadow man, shadow man

Please go away

I really don't feel like playing today

Go away

Go away

I'm not ignoring you

I'm just plotting your doom

In a world that's ready to drown

Don't look - we have you now

Rape the nun

Kill the saint

Wear their skin

Tell me there's no way to escape...
