Strike me down for my desires
Have me burn upon your fire
The cloven hoof and heart of stone
It shreds my skin down to the bone
And so you lay me down and say no words
And then you cover me with frozen earth
Let me rest without a sound so I may turn the table round
Give me space to breathe again and interlace this daisy chain
Draining out the poison hate, bleeding from my veins
Malice cries out for a worthy reason
Have you seen one?
Hand me your gun
Dressed so bad but I’m wearing a smile
and all you managed was a kiss goodbye
Haven’t got a drug to erase the pain
and I’m bleeding again
Malice cries out for a worthy reason
Have you seen one?
Hand me your gun
Throw your gun into the fire
Help me mend these broken wires
