Hell in Gold Leaf Palaces
Mary Jane Kelly
i was conceived from the same soil but grown through fury
to burn every part of you from my mind and body
you nailed my eyes to a fallen cross
one god sent forth to trivialise us all
one guy, 12 sheep, we're runnin' on empty
the wine is fermented, the meat is rotten
your spirit is willing but my flesh is tasteless
i now see nothing but evil eyes through an offbeat heart
i'll eat the eternal life right out of your son
i've drowned fate in a vat of my inward hell
there's nothing to escape there's nowhere to go we are always alone
i lit your angels on fire and let my demons run wild
i emptied hell so every devil could spread its wings
i'd rather erect happy endings from tainted soil and thoughtless lust
when their crooked teeth uttered hail Mary's inside the pews of their twisted caucus
stationed pulpits in courts and assemblies
is when the hearts of men tore through clouds and broke apart heaven
gods words fell and the wolves dined on hearts and souls that night
the sun will never rise, these nights will never die
despite this we still believe our prison is paradise
i'll re-write the chapter, to avoid further confusion
cause this fucking place is hell in gold leaf palaces
