Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I spent my whole life
In love with despair
[Verse 2]
Kept my lungs full
With the breath of their
Mute atmosphere
[Verse 3]
I became what I hate
And thus shall I remain
To give birth to a mighty assassin
Armed with a weapon of words
[Verse 4]
To defy the lies
To never compromise
No
Today, my name
Is pain
[Verse 5]
I stood
Beyond the world
Whispering secret syllables in the
Eyeless dark
[Verse 6]
Dancing wildly
Round and round on the rotting ground
Surrounded by the dead dusts of Hell
[Verse 7]
This is how I delete myself
And this is how I corrupt everyone else
[Verse 8]
Obey, obey
Betray, betray
[Verse 9]
You are not unique
You do not need to think
Take it, take it
I will, I will, I will
[Verse 10]
You succumb
So nicely
Like an insect staring back
Like a dying dove
My love, my love
[Verse 11]
So here we are again
The sheets are stained and bloodied
The animals scratchin' at my skin
Here we are again
My face is scraped and bloodied
I've nothing left to give
[Verse 12]
I wasn't there
I'm not involved
I'm innocent
It's not my fault
[Verse 13]
I wasn't there, I'm not involved
I'm innocent, it's not my fault
[Verse 14]
I wasn't there, I'm not involved
I'm innocent, it's not my fault
[Verse 15]
Here in the suicide trees
Here in the suicide trees
[Verse 16]
No bloody, bloody, bloody murder
Among the excrement of my sins
[Verse 17]
So here we are again
In secret ceremonies
Changing shape, amend
Here we are again
Pretending not to notice
The illness sneaking in
[Verse 18]
I wasn't there
I'm not involved
I'm innocent
It's not my fault
[Verse 19]
I wasn't there, I'm not involved
I'm innocent, it's not my fault
[Verse 20]
I wasn't there, I'm not involved
I'm innocent, it's not my fault
[Verse 21]
Here in the suicide trees
Here in the suicide trees
[Verse 22]
Toil and labor, hate your neighbor
Faith in favor, obey
[Verse 23]
Toil and labor, hate your neighbor
Faith in favor, obey
[Verse 24]
Obey
Obey
Here, I do as I please (Obey)
Here in the suicide trees (Obey)
[Verse 25]
Here, I do as I please (Obey)
Here in the suicide trees (Obey)
[Verse 26]
Hate your neighbor
Hate your neighbor
[Verse 27]
The animals scratch at my skin
