I sold my soul
so long ago
& now Ií‚'m alone
here in the palace of sadness & madness & bone
[V1.]
then she said
to the ghosts in her head
I will find the edge
I will force my fingers in
I will sip from the slit
I will rip you to shreds
I will rip you to shreds
[chorus]
rape the nun
kill the saint
wear their skin
there is no way to escape
there is no way
youí‚'ll escape
[V2.]
& I know
the road of truth is lined
with crucified criminals
& suicides
so maybe Ií‚'ll just cut my throat
maybe Ií‚'ll make you smile when I choke
hybrid creature of decay
there is no possible
way youí‚'ll escape
[chorus]
rape the nun
kill the saint
wear their skin
there is no way to escape
there is no way
youí‚'ll escape
[tunnel]
í‚"yesterday upon the stair
I met a man who wasní‚'t there
he wasní‚'t there again today
I wish that man would go away
I wish that man goí‚"¦í‚"
shadow man standing in my room
smearing conspiracies for me to consume
shadow man has a plan just wait & see
youí‚'ll all be sorry for fucking with me
(come out & plaaaay)
shadow man
shadow man
please go away
shadow man
shadow man
please go away
I really doní‚'t feel like playing today!
Ií‚'m not ignoring you
Ií‚'m just plotting your doom
in a world thatí‚'s ready to drown
doní‚'t stop-we have you now!
[chorus]
rape the nun
kill the saint
wear their skin
there is no way to escape
there is no way
youí‚'ll escape
