I'm No Killer Anymore
come and see
i’m bruised around the eyes
and hardly fit to stand
been soaking in the brine
just ******* on my hands
i find dollars when i need them
just take a couple more
i killed nothing that wasn’t bleeding
nothing that ain’t still breathing
i’m no killer anymore
let me down
i should have never come
don’t know how i got here
don’t know what i’ve done
i’ve fractured my veneer
i find women when i need them
then i leave them at the door
it’s the hollow i’ve been feeding
the hollow was succeeding
i’m not hollow anymore
spill the dark
show me why i hide
all of them can laugh
most of them are blind
don’t lie on my behalf
i find jesus when i need him
or when he’s too hard to ignore
i’m finished now with bleating
and he is now conceding
i don’t need jesus anymore
