Everything Destroys You

I’ve got electric blood

And a Bible at hand

But it’s the mouth between my legs

That speaks of promised lands

I wear the cheapest heart

Prostituted from scratch

When your cigarette kills the dark

Devil strings attach

No one protects you

Die for a lie

I will infect you

Then satisfy

Everything destroys you

When I’m close

Everything destroys us

And it shows

I’ve kissed the mother of God

In the shade of the cross

And her tongue inside my mouth

Makes her one of us

We’re in God’s empty room

We’re rejected since birth

And every time you scream for them

It scars heavens and earth

Cold, chains, lights, drain

The darkest flame has just burned through

The final pleasures have turned you

Everything destroys you

When I’m close

Everything destroys us

And it shows

All creations end

Nothing will mend

The end glows
