1. head like a hole.
god money i'll do anything for you . god money just tell me what you want me to do . god money nail me up against the wall . god money don't want everything he wants it all . no you can't take it . no no you can't take it (no you can't take that away from me)
head like a hole . black as your soul . i'd rather die than give you control . head like a hole . black as your soul . i'd rather die than give you control
bow down before the one you serve . you're going to get what you deserve
god money's not looking for the cure . god money's not concerned about the suck among the pure . god money let's go dancing on the backs of the bruised . god money's not one to choose . no you can't take it . no no you can't take it . no you can't take that away from me
head like a hole . black as your soul . i'd rather die than give you control . head like a hole . black as your soul . i'd rather die than give you control
bow down before the one you serve . you're going to get what you deserve . you know who you are

2. terrible lie.
hey God, why are you doing this to me? am i not living up to what i'm supposed to be? whay am i seething with this animosity? hey God, i think you owe me a great big apology
terrible lie
hey God, i really don't know what you mean . seems like salvation comes only in our dreams . i feel my hatred grow all the more extreme . hey God, can this world really be as sad as it seems
terrible lie
don't take it away from me . i need someone to hold on to . don't take it away from me . i need someone to hold on to
he God, there's nothing left for me to hid . i lost my ignorance, security and pride . i'm all alone in a world you must despise . hey God, i believed the promises, the promises and lies
terrible lie
you made me throw it all away . my morals left to decay . how many you betray . you've taken everything
terrible lie
my head is filled with disease . my skin is begging you please . i'm on my hands and knees . i want so much to believe . i need someone to hold on to . i need someone to hold on to . i need someone . i need someone . i need someone to hold on to . i give you everything . my sweet everything
hey God, i really don't know who i am . in this world of piss

3. down in it.
kinda like a cloud i was up way up in the sky and i was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe sometimes i can't believe them myself and i decided i was never coming down . just then a tiny little dot caught my eye it was just about to small to see . but i watched it way to long and that dot was pulling me down
i was up above it . now i'm down in it
well shut up so what what does it matter now . i was swimming in the haze no i crawl on the ground . and everything i never liked about you is kind of seeping into me . try to laugh about it now but isn't it funny how everything works out ("i guess the jokes on me," she said)
i was up above it . now i'm down in it
i used to be so big and strong . i used to know my right from wrong . i used to never be afraid . i used to be somebody . i used to have something inside . now just this hole that's open wide . i used to want it all . i used to be somebody
i'll cross my heart and hope to die but the needle's already in my eye . and all the world's weight is on my back and i don't even know why . and what i used to think is me is just a fading memory . i looked him right in the eye and said "goodbye."
i was up above it . now i'm down in it

4. sanctified.
it's still getting worse after everything i've tried . what if i found a way to wash it all aside . what if she touches with those fingertips . as the words spill out like fire from her lips
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her . if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified . i am purified . i am sanctified . inside you
i'm just caught up in another of her spells . she's turning me into someone else . every day i hope and pray that this will end . but when i can i do it all again
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her . if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified . i am purified . i am sanctified . inside you
as surely as the blade's course is run . maybe my kingdom's finally come

5. something i can never have.
i still recall the taste of my tears . echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears . my favorite dreams of you stil wash ashore . scraping through my head 'till i don't want to sleep anymore . come on tell me . make this all go away . you make this all go away . i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting to scare myself . make this all go away . you make this all go away . i just want

something . i just want something i can never have
you always were the one to show me how . back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now . this thing is slowly taking me apart . grey would be the color if i had a heart
i just want something i can never have
in this place it seems like such a shame . though it all looks different now, i know it's still the same . everywhere i look you're all i see . just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be
come on tell me . make this all go away . you make this all go away . i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting t oscare myself . make this all go away . you make this all go away . i just want something . i just want something i can never have . i just want something i can never have
i think i know what you mean . that night on my bed . still picking at this scab . i wish you were dead . your sweat and perry ellis . just stains on my sheets

6. kinda i want to.
i can't shake this feeling from my head . there's a devil sleeping in my bed . he's watching you from across the way . i cannot make this feeling go away
i know it's not the right thing . and i know it's not the good thing . but kinda i want to
i'm not sure of what i should do . when everything i'm thinking of is you . all of my excuses turn to lies . maybe God will cover up his eyes
i know it's not the right thing . and i know it's not the good thing . but kinda i want to . kinda i want to
maybe just for tonight. we can pretend it's alright . what's the price i pay . i don't care what they say . i wantt to . i want to (i'll take my chance tonight)

7. sin.
you give me the reason . you give me control . i gave you my Purity . my Purity you stole . did you
think i wouldn't recognize this compromise . am i justto stupid to realize . stale incense old sweat
and lies lies lies
it comes down to this . your kiss . your fist . and your strain . it gets under my skin . within . take in
the extent of my sin
you give me the angerr . you give me the nerve . carry out the sentece . i get what i deserve . i'm just
an effigy to be deface . to be dsgraced . your need for me has been replaced . and if i can't have
everything well then just give me a taste
it comes down to this . your kiss . your fist . and your strain . it get's under my skin . within . take in
the extent of my sin

8. that's what i get.
just when everything was making sense . you took away all my self-confidence . now all that i've been hearing must be true . i guess i'm not the only boy for you
but that's what i get
how could you turn us into this? after you just tought me how to kiss you . i told you i'd never say goodbye . now i'm slipping on the tears you made me cry
but that's what i get
why does it come as a surprise . to think that i was so naive . maybe didn't mean so much . but it meant everything to me

9. the only time.
i'm drunk . and right now i'm so in love with you . and i don't want to think too much about what we should or shouldn't do . lay my hands on Heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars . while the devil wants to fuck me in the back of his car . nothing quite like the feel of something new
maybe i'm all messed up . maybe i'm all messed up in you
but this is the only time i really feel alive . this is the only time i really feel alive
i swear . i just found everything i need . the sweat in your eyes the blood in your veins are listening to me . well i want to drink it up and swim in it untill i drown . my moral standing is lying down . nothing quite like the feel of something new
maybe i'm all messed up . maybe i'm all messed up in you
but this is the only time i really feel alive . this is the only time i really feel alive
i can't help thinking Christ never had it like this

10. ringfinger.
well you've got me working so hard lately . working my hands until they bleed . if i was twice the man i could be . i'd still be half of ywhat you need . still you lead me and i follow . anything you ask you know i'll do . but this one act of consecration is what i ask of you
ringfinger . promise carved in stone . deeper than the sea . ringfinger . sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
you just leave me nailed here . hanging like Jesus on this cross . i'll be dying for your sins . and aiding to the cause
ringfinger . promise carved in stone . deeper than the sea . ringfinger . sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
wrap my eyes in bandages . confessions i see through . i get everything i want . when i get part of you
ringfinger . promise carved in stone . deeper than the sea . ringfinger . sever flesh and bone and offer it to me . ringfinger . promise carved in stone . deeper than the sea . ringfinger . devil's flesh and bone . do something for me

i'm so tired i can't get to sleep . and the squeaking of the bed is right in time with the song that's reapeating in my head . i just want you to know
"when i do it, i only think of you."
