closer to god


you let me violate you
you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you
you let me complicate you

i broke apart my insides
i've got no soul to sell
the only thing that works for me
help me get away

i wanna f**k you
i wanna taste you
i wanna feel you
i wanna be you
just like an animal

you can have my isolation
you can have the hate that it brings
you can have absence of faith
you can have my everything

you tear down all my reason
you see through what i hide
you make me perfect
help me get inside
i wanna f**k you
i wanna taste you
i wanna feel you
i wanna be you

like an animal

closer(deviation)


you let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
you let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
help me i broke apart my insides, help me i've got no soul to sell
help me the only thing that works for me, help me get away from myself
i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to f**k you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god
you can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings
you can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything
help me tear down my reason, help me its' your sex i can smell
help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody else
i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to feel you from the inside
i want to f**k you like an animal
my whole existence is flawed
you get me closer to god

through every forest, above the trees
within my stomach, scraped off my knees
i drink the honey inside your hive
you are the reason i stay alive

you get me closer to god
help me get away from myself
you get me closer to god
help me get away from myself
you get me closer to god

heresy(blind)


he sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
he tries to tell me what i put inside of me
he's got the answers to ease my curiosity
he dreamed up a god and called it christianity
your god is dead and no one cares
if there is a hell i will see you there
he flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
he made a virus that would kill off all the swine
his perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
demands devotion atrocities done in his name
your god is dead and no one cares
drowning in his own hypocrisy
and if there is a hell i will see you there
burning with your god in humility
will you die for this?

memorabilia


(what do your nipples look like)

wherever i go
i take a little piece of you
i collect
i reject
photographs i took of you

well times i passed through
so many faces
so many places
i have got to have a memory
i have never been there
i have never had you

i can't remember
give me your reminder
i collect
i reject

memorabilia
(now girl..only it's flavor..bow down here)

keychains and snowstorms
the taste of your sweat
the look in your eye
i have been inside you
i know what it feels like
(wet as it is..the whiter the honey)
i collect
i reject

memorabilia
(goodies come in here all day)

give me your reminder
i can't remember
i collect
i reject

memorabilia

you get me closer to god

you get me closer to god
you get me closer to god
you get me closer to god

i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to f**k you like an animal

you get me closer to god
you let me violate you
you let me desocrate you
you let me penetrate you
you let me complicate you
you let me violate you
you let me desocrate you
you let me penetrate you
you let me complicate you

i want to f**k you like an animal
i want to f**k you like an animal

i want to f**k you like an animal
