I know –
I know,
I died for nothing,
I clawed at chains and ripped a bullet out of my skin,
I let it bleed
I watched God leave
I can’t help but to tear off the flesh,
I love the burning, I love the anguish
I need to feel it, feel alive
I can’t help but to split the bones in two
I love the temporary relief, the quick release
I want God
I toss and turn, oh how badly
I want God

I can’t help but to split the bones in two
I love the temporary relief, the quick release
I want God
I toss and turn, oh how badly
