Lyrics

Touch the leprous for prosperity, stare into the cyclone's eye
Breathe the vapours for divinity; just take my hand and follow the blind
And dance with the devil beneath a concrete sky
Smile a black tooth grin and play again for the sake of life
There's still life on the dark side when you can't stand the light
There are pleasures unimaginable here on the other side
Come dance with me... come decompse
There's so much to see, I've got so much to show

[Chorus]
I repent now for the sins of generations. I repent now
I repent now with a soul stained by damnation; I repent now
"How can anyone bear doing that?" such a popular phrase
But the truth lies in my nature; I was born to..

I need something larger than life, something that feels real
Corpse, horses fucking whores; I need something to feel
In the eyes of the storm my body's tied with plastic chains
My eyes sown open; this psychic train leads so far away
The city night's alive with not quite human cries
I'm the fiddler, sing along and dance until the end of time
Too many ecstacies; my pores are breathing blood
Can you feel the lie in me, smiling hate, laughing death?

[Chorus]

...I was born to hate, lie deceive, kill, rape, destroy
Sweet white flesh, eagle spread on a velvet bed
I don't mind paying, hell, everybody pays, everybody sells
I know what you are condemning me while you nurture
Your own depravity in darkness
So much revealed, so much unconcealed;
"Hidden" in transparency for everyone to see

[Chorus]

Such a popular phrase
At the same time everybody sins in their own way
So I repent on bleeding knees with gritted teeth. I fucking repent
