I've been saved by my new religion, and the hole it dug in my heart I've been saved by my television, and the fucking hole in my head I'm the son of a preacher man, I'm the daughter of a whore Begging to be saved from the promised land Begging to be blind, so I don't have to watch I've been damned by my own design, and the fucking hole in my head I've been shunned by ones I love, dig an endless hole in my heart Just a son of a preacher man, I'm the daughter of a whore, Hallelujah Begging to be saved from a promised fate Begging to be blind so I don't have to watch I want god to suffer as man You've been brainwashed

You're sick with guilt, dug your grave Shame cripples you, don't look down Blood on your hands. Head for the hills, run and hide A world apart isn't far enough You were a ghost my entire life, now I hope these words haunt you Fade away, try to forget Hide again, try to forget Self inflicted exile Dirty gutters licked clean Blood on your hands I'm a man of means by no means, licking dirty gutters clean Old enough to see past dreams. I lied to myself, I lied

Love lost with gutter drugs, Smoked it all with black lined lungs Every cent I ever had, put to god for souls all wounded Yeah, worlds keep turning Yeah, are we learning? Can't you see the logic? Teeth are black and rotting I've got to live and let go, your gods voice told me so The idea of grace this world sold to me The idea of grace, I was sold Give me something to hold onto, Give me something to cling onto, God can't hear you screaming "cult" Future sick, poisoned dreams We're just waiting patiently, to make amends with our love Casting stones, one by one, to be free from your love Noone showed me there's nothing to believe as evil as the stone that sits above your bones Swallow my pride for me, I couldn't bring myself to choke it down But if you want me to watch, you'll have to hold my eyes Hold my eyes open
