Still I Breathe

Why, I'm alive, and still I breathe in the midnight hour. I want to touch you, tear into your skin, don't stop until I get enough, I was born from original sin. Don't be cruel to a heart that's true, shock the monkey in it's cage. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. Everyday is so wonderful waiting for the sun. I'm a slave of being my captor. You may find yourself .........the same as it ever was, you may ask yourself .........how did i get here. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. I don't know why I hunt like I do. I'm looking at you through the glass, don't know how much time has past, but I know that it feels like forever, but no one ever tells you that forever feels like home sitting all alone inside your head. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. More human than human, cut your pride and watch it bleed. I feel the pain in your eyes, Give it to me, Give it to me. No escaping pain, you belong to me, clinging on to life by the skin of your teeth. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. Take a look to the sky before you die it's the last time you will. I'm your source of self destruction, dedicated to how I'm killing you, Hell is worth all that, natural habitat. She wanted the world so I strung her guts up in the rafters. It's like a dream I won't wake up from. I won't be sleeping tonight. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. It aches in every bone, I die alone, but not for you. Tell me how does it feel. I am smelling like a rose that somebody gave me because I'm dead and bloated. You look at me but you don't see, understand I'm a sinner. This is my life, the healing hand held back by the deepened nail. Don't come around here no more words can't bring me down, your delirious no matter what you say. Your pathetic in your own way. I'm doin' the best I ever did, I'm doin' the best that I can, now go away. Gettin' back, get back on track, get off my back. I pick myself off the floor and now I'm done with you, Always. In this moment I am sinking in this silence. In this silence I believe. I'm here to turn up the volume and I'm gonna enjoy making you enjoy it
