I'll swallow up all of you
Like a big bottle of big, big pills
You're the one that I should never take
But I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
You're a flower that's withering
I can't feel your thorns in my head

This is no impressionability
You're not crying, this is blood all over me
You're not crying, this is blood all over me
You're not crying, this is blood all over me

And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me starve

I used to hold your heart to neck
I know I'll miss you if I close my eyes
But this is loaded with an open film
I'll see you and I'll blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces
I will blow your heart to pieces

And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me starve
Oh oh oh oh... Oh oh oh oh... Oh oh oh oh... Oh oh oh oh...

My pain's not ashamed to repeat itself
Pain's not ashamed to repeat itself
Pain's not ashamed to repeat itself
Pain's not ashamed to repeat itself
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you
I can't sleep until I devour you

And I'll love you, if you let me
And I'll love you, if you won't make me starve

. . .


When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika

Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside

I want to smash into your face, like a plain
and drown in between your legs

Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside

I'd die for your sins
If you don't kill me while I'm trying, baby

Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry

When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika
When I see you in the sun you're as pretty as a swastika

Take you down, down from the inside
Take you down, down from the inside

One of us is a knife
One of us is ripe, baby

Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry

Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
Let me show you where it hurts
There's more than one way, to make you cry

. . .


It's not like I made myself a list
Of new and different ways of murdering your heart
I'm just a painting that's still wet
If you touch me I'll be smeared, you'll be stained
Stained for the rest of your life

So turn around walk away before you confuse the way we abuse each other
You're not afraid of getting hurt
And I'm not afraid of how much I hurt you

Well aware I'm a danger to myself
Are you aware I'm a danger to others?
There's a crack in my soul you thought was a smile

Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna leave a scar
Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna to leave a scar
Leave a scar, leave a scar
Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna to leave a scar

I'm more like a silver bullet
And I'm like a gun, not easy to hold
I'm moving fast and if I stay inside your heart
I'm certain that this will be the end of your life

So turn around walk away before you confuse the way we abuse each other
You're not afraid of getting hurt
And I'm not afraid of how much I hurt you

Well aware I'm a danger to myself
Are you aware I'm a danger to others?
There's a crack in my soul you thought was a smile

Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna leave a scar
Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna to leave a scar
Leave a scar, leave a scar
Whatever doesn't kill you is gonna to leave a scar

Should warn you that you may fuck me
But chances are I'm gonna fuck you over
Should warn you that you may fuck me
But chances are I'm gonna fuck you over
Should warn you that you may fuck me
But chances are I'm gonna fuck you over
Should warn you that you may fuck me
But chances are I'm gonna fuck you over

Who'll ride this dying carousel?
Four rusted horses strangled by their own rope
What children love is singing "we'll know that their tied hearts sit broke,"
"That their tied hearts sit broke"

Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead
Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead

I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale

Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead
Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead

You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
Useless in Hell

I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale
I can see the coffin shining through my tinted window
Must've missed the sign that said it was a fire sale

Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead
Everyone will come, everyone will come to my funeral
To make sure that I stay dead

You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
You can't take this from me (forbidden in Heaven and useless in Hell)
Useless in Hell

Who'll ride this dying carousel?
Four rusted horses strangled by their own rope
What children love is singing "we'll know that their tied hearts sit broke,"
"That their tied hearts sit broke,"
Now that their tied hearts sit broke

Death to ladies first, then the gentlemen
Forcery, taxes, facelifts, abortion, nervous breakdance
Satanic girls gone wild, truly fucking suicidal

First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it

It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon

I've got a blackened soul, morals in a hole, wish I was so dead
Now the TV set's a sharp and cold depression
Pointless intervention, illegal separation, call my dealer
I want my lawyer, we've got a situation

First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it
First you try to fuck it, then you try to eat it
If it hasn't learned your name, you better kill it before they see it

It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
On the news, or is it the noose? The same results may vary
Side effects all vary
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon

Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
Armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon

It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, now do it again)
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon
(Fuck, eat, kill, et cetera)
Fuck the goddamned TV and the radio
And fuck making hits, I'm taking credit for the death toll
It's armagoddamnmotherfuckinggeddon

As we need a 'Why'
And I'll the 'Who' for an
apocalypse 'how'
If the world had one neck, my hands would be the 'where'
and I would choke all of you down
I would choke all of you down
I would choke all of you down

Give me a picket sign
and make it blank and white
Like all those stupid teenage girls

All you fuckers vote beep beep beep
in drunk karaoke cars
if itss too dumb to see, or say, you still sing it
I'll just cue the applause

Lets make sure the music is loud enough we won't even hear it end
Lets make sure the music is loud enough we won't even hear it end

Give me a picket sign
and make it blank and white
Like all those stupid teenage girls

Today's the day you're gonna fucking die

Your demons want to give you a propper goodbye

All you fuckers vote beep beep beep
in drunk karaoke cars
if itss too dumb to see, or say, you still sing it
I'll just cue the applause

Give me a picket sign
and make it blank and white
Like all those stupid teenage girls

I want to celebrate
I want to sell your hate
Today's the day you're gonna fucking die

Your demons want to give you a proper goodbye

Remember when I took you
Up to the top of the hill?
We had our knives drawn.
They were as sharp
As we were in love.
If god crossed us
We'd take all his drugs,
Burn his money
And his house down,
And wait for the fire to spread.
But sometimes hate is not enough
To turn this all to ashes.
Together as one
Against all others
Break all of our wings to
Make sure it crashes
We're running to the
Edge of the world
Running, running away
We're running to the edge of the world
I don't know if the world will end today
I had no choice,
I erased the debt of our family,
Let you say goodbye
With lips like dynamite.
And everyone
Turned their backs
Because they knew
When we held on tight
To each other,
We were something fatal,
That fell into the wrong hands

. . .


I wanna fuck you like a foreign film
and there’s no subtitles to get you through this
and I’m a country you don’t ever ever ever ever ever
want to visit again

Line up,
Roll camera,
you pretend
I’ll pretend
And cut, cut, cut
cut, cut, cut
Line up,
Roll camera,
you pretend
I’ll pretend
And cut, cut, cut

I want to kill you like they do in the movies
but don’t worry there’s another one just like you in line

I want to kill you like they do in the movies
but don’t worry there’s another one just like you in line

Line up,
Roll camera,
you pretend
I’ll pretend
And cut, cut, cut
Line up,
Roll camera,
you pretend
I’ll pretend
And cut, cut, cut, cut

I’m a strip, strip, strip, and
I flicker, flick, flick, flick
a flicker of celluloid
and there’s holes, holes, holes
in my everything
I’m a strip, strip, strip, and
I flicker, flick, flick, flick
a flicker of celluloid
and there’s holes, holes, holes
in my everything

You’re just what I projected
just what I projected
It’s just what I projected
just want to project it

Come in, come in, come in,
Come in, come in, come in, come inside

There’s so much, much, much more skin to break
I haven’t even taken off my gloves,
There’s so much, much, much more skin to break
I haven’t even taken off my gloves

I feel a little sorry baby,
I feel a little sorry baby,
I hear the afterlife is poorly scored
I feel a little sorry baby,
I feel a little sorry baby,
I hear the afterlife is poorly scored

You’re lucky you don’t have to wake up
sick, sick, sick, sick
I’m sick of immortality,
I’m sick of immortality
I’m sick of immortality

I was only acting, baby
only acting, baby
You were only acting, baby
overacting, baby

Don’t confuse it with love
Don’t confuse it with love
Don’t confuse it with love
Don’t confuse it with love

Everytime I kill you I’m really just killing myself
Everytime I kill you I’m really just killing myself
Everytime I kill you I’m really just killing myself

Don’t flatter yourself, don’t flatter yourself

This is business not pleasure, baby
this is business not pleasure, baby
this business of pleasure, baby
business not pleasure, baby
this is business
this is business

I want to kill you like they do in the movies
but don’t worry there’s another one just like you, standing in line
I want to kill you like they do in the movies

I had a dream
This one I feel the need to mention
I was happy for awhile
And I stopped being scared and ashamed
To say what's on my mind
But you thought I'd change after awhile
And said "you'd better treat me different or else"
"Or else" seems like a stupid fucking thing to say to someone like me
Someone like me
Wow, wow, wow
Wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow...

Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside
Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside

I'm worse
Than what you think you'd catch from me
Complicated's understated
Did you stop and take a look at who you fell in love with?
At who you fell in love with

It doesn't matter
How many times I say it
It never gets old
That's why I have to say
Wow, wow, wow
Wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow...

Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside
Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside

It doesn't matter if you're going to come or just going
I never wanted you to come here anyway
There's a word that's like you
Because it can be a noun, a verb, a exclamation, or the thing I say

When something is unbelievable
When I'm not able to believe how unbelievably unbelievable
That you believe you could not be leave-able
That's when I have to say
Wow, wow, wow
Wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow-wow...

Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside
Don't be surprised I can look you in the eye
It's hard to take you serious when you take me inside

. . .


I'll build you a shiny dollhouse or church
For you to shrink
into a tiny wight spider
and gorge on horrid memories
with conceited wings

Smother the past in a cocoon
Or me
And I'll help you move
all the bodies
oh oh

I'll possess you but I don't
Need you
to be another one
of my possessions
I don't need you to be my possession

And I won't make you kneel
for anyone
but me
I won't promise a star
don't promise your soul
well say that we don't believe

I'll keep you wet
When the world is dry
U can see them coming
I'll take you back inside
If they came for answer I'll
Weap my claws round your mouth tight
We'll consume each other
Until there's nothing left to hide
And they can all drown in our blood

I'll possess you but I don't
Need you
to be another one
of my possessions
I don't need you to be my possession

And I won't make you kneel
for anyone
but me
I won't promise a star
don't promise your soul
well say that we don't believe
And I won't make you kneel
for anyone
but me
I won't promise a star
don't promise your soul
well say that we don't believe

We can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no we can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no we can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no we can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no we can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no we can't haunt this home
Home anymore
No no no no no

How the fuck are we supposed to know
when Im a monster, the way
you refuse to die?
how the fuck are we supposed to know
if were in love or if were in pain
Im a tightrope walker
I cant find my circus
and Im damaged beyond repair
youre just a coffin of a girl I knew
and Im buried in you
You never said Ill end up like this.
You never said Ill end up like this.
Sometimes I dream Im an exterminating angel
a traveling executioner from heaven
sent to give you the prettiest death i know
call the grave and make our reservations.
You never said Ill end up like this.
Are we in love or are we in pain
How the fuck are we supposed to know
when Im a monster, the way
you refuse to die?
how the fuck are we supposed to know
if were in love or if were in pain
Why is my wound a front door to you?
am I my own shadow?

. . .


We're from America, we're from America
Where we eat our young
We're from America, we're from America
It's where Jesus was born
We're from America, we're from America
Where they let you cum on their faces
We're from America, we're from America
We speak American

We don't believe in credibility
Because we know that were fucking incredible

I want to be a martyr, don't want to be a victim
Be a killer with a god so they call me a hero
Want to be a martyr, don't want to be a victim
Be a killer with a god so they call me a hero

God is an excuse
So sing it with me

We're from America, we're from America
We're from America
You can sing it with me

From America

We don't like to kill our unborn
We need them to grow up and fight our wars

We believe in everything we say
We say it because we believe it

We're from America, we're from America
We're from America
You can sing it with me

From America
You can sing it with me
From America
You can sing it with me

We're from America, we're from America
We turn literature into litter
We're from America, we're from America
We believe in being a quitter

I'm in recovery

From America
From America
America
So sing it with me

We're from America, we're from America
We're from America
You can sing it with me
We're from America, we're from America
We're from America
You can sing it with me

From America
You can sing it with me
From America
You can sing it with me

We eat our young

. . .


The fruit is speechless
before our sorceries
the party has just begun
Time lapse and dancing and rotting in place,
and we have reached the high end of low
The high end of low
The high end of low

You can take me,
The grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged,
I need human wreckage
I have to look up
just to see Hell

Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
now for you
this is why you should run
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
now for you
this is why you should run

The core of a woman
is where her body
chooses to revolve like a corpse
centrifugal, melted under the skin,
bacteria…
into the napalm heart I explode,
I explode
I explode

You can take me,
The grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged,
I need human wreckage
I have to look up
just to see Hell

Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
now for you
this is why you should run
Fallen, fallen, fallen from grace
now for you
this is why you should run

The light shines in the darkness
and the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
and the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
and the darkness will never understand it
The light shines in the darkness
and the darkness will never understand it

You can take me,
The grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged,
I need human wreckage
I have to look up
just to see Hell

You can take me,
The grave can take me
The earth is waiting to eat us alive
I love you damaged,
I need human wreckage
I have to look up
just to see Hell

. . .


We missed the film close
To the third act and the misery
It's not rain you rapist werewolves
It's God pissing down on you
I won't die alone cause I'll break off my own arms
Sharpen my bones, stab you once for each time I thought you
Were trying to take something you'll never be good enough
To even look upon

It's better to push something when it's slipping
Than to risk being dragged down
If you want to hit bottom
Don't bother try to taking me with you
And I won't answer if you call
Too happy to let in Hell
Trying to break your fall,
Your fall

This isn't mine
Won't need to change the names
Everyone around you has murdered someone,
Something sacred
And isn't one nail without dirt under it
Isn't any white cotton panties
That aren't soaked and stained red

It's better to push something when it's slipping
Than to risk being dragged down
If you want to hit bottom
Don't bother try to taking me with you
And I won't answer if you call
Too happy to let in Hell
Trying to break your fall,
Your fall

Into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
Into the fire
Fire, oh...
Into the fire
Fire, oh...
Into the fire
Fire, oh...
Into the fire
Fire, oh...

. . .


If you can hear this don't assume that I'm talking to ya
Yesterday everything I thought I believed in died but today is my birthday
Today is my birthday
I don't need you, I'll say it to myself
It doesn't mean I won't need somebody
Anyone with half a soul will hear this and will never leave me

If you don't know what forever feels like
I'll show you what it feels like with out it

This time I won't hesitate to kill to protect what I believe in
This time I won't hesitate to kill to protect what I believe in

I get by now I'm not really dead
but i really needed someone to save me
leaving me alone to die
is worse than having the guts to kill me

If you don't know what forever feels like
I'll show you what it feels like with out it
I'll show you what it feels like without it

This time I won't hesitate to kill to protect what I believe in
This time I won't hesitate to kill to protect what I believe in

Not letting you in
Won't satisfy me I'll teach you about loss
