Lyrics

Obsession turns addiction
The skin a masochist playground
In which I illustrate emotion
Through physical deformation
Pain is unfelt
Bodily desire overwhelms the consciousness
The need to express myself
Rational thought paralysed by
Artistic difference
My compulsion must be brought
To obscurity
Of art I carve my skin
Seperation of thought
Involuntary actions
The head torn apart
Overlapped by skin
Digits cut short
Lips sewn together
Tongue cut apart
These are my actions
Held together by rods
Eyelids peeled back
Conclusion by rote
Altering ego questions
Exercise now done
Body will now alter
Consciousness succumbs
The masterpiece now forgiven
The final word unveiled
A sudden decay is now revealed
The body now done
Obsession turns addiction
The skin a masochist playground
In which I illustrate emotion
Through physical deformation
Pain is unfelt
