You phony gods
You filthy w****s You blasphemies You pulpy cores Is this what you wanted? Is this what you need? Is this how it happens? Is this how you feed? God damn all you lepers God damn all you freaks God damn all you monsters God damn all you sneaks You beat me down You stole my life You took my heart You gave me strive May life f**k you over May life tear you down May life rip your eyes out May life steal your crown You phony gods You bleeding sore You blasphemy You perfect w***e The world is my bedbug The people my crutch From dark-speaking places My spirit they clutch They swarm and uncover My dead-rotting flesh The ground they devour They coat it like mesh Material purpose De-sanctified saint The skies I surmount and I blacken in paint © 2010 Zack Burton |
