lyrics

I got a terrible addiction. It’s always eating at my soul. It used to be a blast, but now it’s just no fun. I swear this is the last time, and after that I’m done. I never wanted to be like this, it’s just the way that I was raised. When everyone around is so sickeningly cute, always fucking smiling, it’s enough to make you puke.

And you prayers are all wasted on them, yes they are.

I’ll rise again, I’ll rise up from the ashes, and I’ll be your friend.

I got a terrible affliction. It’s always eating at my mind. I’ll try not be eating anybody’s soul, but you gotta understand, sometimes it’s out of my control. But I don’t mind that I was cast out. I never did look good in white. And God was such a boring drag, he never had the time. He’s got better things to do that listen to you whine.

And your prayers are all wasted on Him, yes they are.

Every night you kneel down by your bed side, and pray to the Lord. But your prayers go unheard. He’s never listening, but you know that I am. I’m not such a bad guy. Not I!

This album is just great, thrusting the listener between so many emotions. I wish more people could be made aware of the band. Favorite track: St. Helens C. Marry Hultman
