Made something better
He kept it for himself
I'm not that stupid
I just need a lot of help
To understand how stupid you really are

Down at the bottom
Of the ocean, I lay down
Nobody's coming
Just continue to drown
And no one here could ever stop my ruin now, now

And I know I've got a lot to fear
You'll get me out
Oh, God, just get me out of here
Are you astounding us, surrounding us

And asphyxiate all your pain away
Don't try to win it will only end in disgrace

Nobody's daughter
She never was, she never will
Be beholden
To anyone she cannot kill
You don't understand how damaged we really are
You don't understand how evil we really are

And I will dig my own grave, yeah
I'm misbegotten
I am the last one you save here
Of course I'll sleep forever and for ever

Anesthetize all your horrors away
We live inside this black web you have spun
Greed and your bile is miles away
Don't tell me I have lost when clearly I've won

I want to see you stretched out on the floor
The world's broken doll, the world's shattered whore
And you, you can't walk
But you, you can crawl
Come on, infect us all

Asphyxiate all your pain away
Don't try to win it will only end in disgrace

Translucetize the cold light of day
It's glorious
It's terrible
God, I need it
It's beautiful
It's ravenous
I'll just feed it
Coil down to your dark black decay

And I will dig my own grave, yeah
I'm misbegotten
I am the last one you save here
It's all gone rotten

. . .


Skinny little bitch
Staring at the mirror
In your desperation to disappear

And you would be oh so dumb to fuck with me
Cause baby you're much too young to end up with me

Your bedrooms walls are falling down
And everyone can see you now
Your bedroom walls they sell for cheap
You lie, you lie alone
You lie alone
You never sleep
Oh, you never sleep

Skinny little bitch
Praying to the Lord
Praying for some salvation
Cause she's oh so bored

In my vile sex horror and my cheap drug hell
I am all the things you'll never live to tell

And you will never see the light
I'll just obscure it out of spite
You're just a nasty piece of work
Come on, come on baby
Come on baby, let it burn
Oh, baby, does it hurt?

Born of foul creation
Born of sour milk
Cocaine filth

You staggered here on broken glass
So I could kick your scrawny ass
All the drugs and all the burns
What a nasty, what a nasty, nasty piece of work
Oh, baby, does it hurt?
Oh, baby, just go slower
Oh, baby, just go lower
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch
Skinny little bitch

. . .


Anguish and misery fall here like a dead star
And everything you ever said
Now tears me all apart

He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now it's the gutter
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him

Pray for the rain
Oh, are you up there
Do you listen
It's the terror and the pain and I
Just wait for you to have risen

He goes down, down to his only friend
He knows now, now that you love him
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him

I hold on to you like the death of an angel
And I hold on to you with all the life that's in me

Why was I not good enough to save you from destruction?
And your end and my beginning
Oh, they need no introduction

He goes down, down to his only friend
He knows now, now that you love him
He goes down, down to his bitter end
He knows now, now you can't touch him

Sweet as honey
I'll live forever

Pure as first love
Just come home

I hold on to you like the death of angel
And I hold on to you with all the life that's in me

And I hold on to you like the death of an angel
And I hold on to you with all the hope I have left

And I hold on to you
Watch the death of an angel
And I hold on to you
Until the light pours like honey

. . .


I knew a boy, he came from the sea
He was the only boy who ever knew the truth about me

I'm overwhelmed and undersexed
Oh baby what did you expect?
I'm over rod and so disgraced
And too ashamed to show my face

And they're coming to take me away
What I want I will never have
I'm on the Pacific Coast Highway
With your gun in my hands

I knew a boy, he left me so ravaged
Do you even know the extense of the damage?
My dirty lips, oh secrets dies
In between the sheets and the promises that kept me from your eyes

I'm bloody and so darling bow
I don't know what to do with my hands now
I surrender, I give in
I'll kick down your door if you don't let me in
And I lost myself completely
I look to you my shooting star
I'm on the Pacific Coast Highway
My God how did you fall so far?

Your whole world is in my hands
Your whole wide world is in my hands
Your whole world is in my hands
Your whole wide world is in my hands

I'm out there dying for you, baby
And I got your blood on my hands

Your whole world is in my hands
Your whole wide world is in my hands
Your whole world is in my hands
Your whole wide world is in my hands

And you know I'm drowning
And you know I'm drowning
And you know I'm drowning
And you know I'm drowning
And you know I'm drowning

. . .


Samantha, you swore
You never turned that trick before
Keep waiting for a war
You'll never win
You'll lose again

Watch her wrap her legs around this world
Can't take that gutter from the girl

Samantha
You burned me out
Samantha
It's over now
Samantha

Your war
Was a lost cause before I came
Keep praying
Pray for
The pretty things you won't get back

Watch her wrap her legs around this world
Stab the gutter right out of that girl
That girl

Through villages of ether
My crucifixion comes
Will you sing my hallelujah?
Will you tell me when it's done?

Look in my eyes
There's nothing there
Goodbye
I wanted you out of my whole life
Goodnight
And don't try to move

People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid agony
People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid suffering

People like you fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me

(Fuck people like you)
Leave your money by the bed
(Fuck people like me)
(Fuck people like you)
In the gutter where you live
(Fuck people like me)
And I throw it all away
And I throw it in your face
And if you were on fire
I would just throw kerosene
Cause I love so much I hate
And I hate what you have seen in me

Samantha

So you think that you could save him
And we know that someone died
Oh, an unkindness of ravens
And we know that Mary lied
And through villages of ether
Oh, my crucifixion comes
Will you sing my hallelujah?
Will you tell me when it's done?

People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid agony
People like you fuck people like me
In order to avoid suffering

People like you fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me
Fuck people like you
Fuck people like me
Fuck people like you

. . .


You just don't love me
And I just don't care
Oh, I never said I would play fair
Something so perfect and so rare
There is no cure
There's not a prayer, a prayer
Look what I can do

I am the only perfect choice
You've met your match
I've lost my voice
And when you're gone it gets so cold
I swear I'm too young to be this old, this old
Look what I can do

Oh, I've been cheated
Covered in diamonds and covered in filth
But I'm still breathing
Oh, please stick around and I'll build

Yes, I've crawled on glass
To grasp at straws
Stuttering, staggering through
And I've pierced the last hole in my arm
To gouge out the pieces of you

And your staggering, stuttering greed
And your never ending need
And your terrible awful deeds
And your lack of truth in these things

You know the whole thing is writ
You'll always quit
You always did
To the most delusional stare
And all that I have is out
And laid bare
And laid bare
Look what I can do
Look what I can do
Look what I can do

Oh, I've been bitter
You know what's true
And you know what's right
Oh, I'm forever
Oh, just do the right thing
For once
In your life
In your life

I know that I'm a hungry lost girl
But please stick around and I'll build you a world
I'll build you a world
I'll build you a world

. . .


So you're lying in your underwear
Oh, in someone else's bed
And the silence is so dangerous
It's a terrible sense of dread

So I have another cigarette
And I just try to forget
How did I end up all alone?
How did we all end up dead?

Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
I believe I've seen the end of it all
Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
I've got the cure for it all

And my dirty little secret
Has a wretched little name
In the filthy morning after
I have walked the walk of shame

Oh, and you'll be the end of me
As I have been the death of you
And I quite enjoy your suffering
Oh, I want to watch the view

Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
I believe I've seen the end of it all
Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
I've got the cure for it all

Are you there when I'm ready to top myself
Are you there when I'm all alone
Do you even know why I am suffering
Are you down to your bones?
Are you down to your bones?
Are you down to your bones?

Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
I believe I've seen the end of it all
Sunday morning when the rain begins to fall
It's the end of the world

I never said I would try for you
I never said I would die for you
I never said I would try for you
I never said I would die for you

. . .


This is a letter to God
This is a letter to him
Please forgive me now
Please forgive me now
Oh my God, oh my God
This is a letter I've written to you
In this world, had bad times
And I don't know what to do
You bring me love
You bring me joy
And they say I've destroyed a boy
You bring me pain
You bring me soul
So why the hell am I so out of control
This is a letter to God
A letter to you
And at times all I wanna say is
Boo hoo
But who knew?
It's the things you do
That bring me so closer to you
This is a letter to God
This is a letter to him
Please forgive me now
Please forgive me now
And all the lights burnt out and faded away
I watch your shadows in the night but you never stay
Tell me who is this woman that I display
I said no one's gonna tell me how to behave
I am not a slave
I am not a slave
I am not a slave
Rehabilitate, live and learn
Live and love, have some fun
Fly me away, away from here
Take away all of my fears
No more crying
No more lying
And no more last goodbyes
Take my hand
Cause you're the man
Cause you'll always understand
This is a letter to God
This is a letter to him
Please forgive me now
Please forgive me now
Forgive me now
Forgive me now
Forgive me now

. . .


You are beautiful, you are glorious
Now you're covered in loser dust
You are fabulous, you are gorgeous
Now you're covered in loser dust
And all the things I used to trust, yeah
All the things I'm about to crush
Your youth is gone, it's turned to rust
It's all covered in loser dust
Hey I loathe every inch of you
You're going down for what you love, hey
Every single particle you're going down for your loser dust
All the things you used to trust you're going down
I'm burnt out, I'm furious and look at you, you're embarrassing us
Descend, descend and go you must
Isolate the prize, give it one big flush
It's indiscreet, omnivorous
We won't call you and don't call us
And all that's sick with gloat and lust
And do call me I'm so serious
It's not an image it's just a way
You're going down for your final crush
Hey, nothing here can stop you with you're going down for your loser dust
Hey, I can't wait to see you go; you're going down for your loser dust
Hey, show me one thing I didn't know, you're going down...
Think fast baby, what is the rush?
The very thing you would never trust
The very thing you would never touch
It's all covered in loser dust
These women all around, obsessive cunts, file under miscellaneous
They're starving and carnivorous
I mustn't touch what I want so much
You, you make me nervous
You make me drunk
Do you have to grovel so very much?
It's so unfair, it's so unjust, it's just another witch-hunt
Broken, shattered, busted, yeah, you're going down for what you love
Hey, all the death it's just good, yeah
You're going down for your loser dust
Hey, oh just die in public babe
You're going down for your loser dust
Hey, in you lays a gutter yeah; you're going down for your loser dust
Hey, we can't wait to see you go, you're going down...

. . .


I've lost my mind yeah, I've lost control
I've the lost the feeling in my arms, I'm a lost soul
Make the most of me baby, oh don't spit me out
This is how dirty girls get clean, don't leave me now
Listen to her lust, yeah, hear her disgrace
Listen to the fragile things as they all break
Watch from the covers, the comfort of your home
Through the ice and sleet baby, oh down down we go
What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way d-dirty girls stay clean
And I wanted you like no one before
Said you're coming back for me honey
This is how hell forms
This is how a storm begins
This is how trouble's born
Listen to sleep
Listen to her wail
You've given birth to terrible things, watch them unveil
Listen to my torment
Listen to my pain
Please come on back here baby, let me try again
What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way d-dirty girls stay clean
And the rain it poured down
And the wind it moaned
And she wrapped her legs around him
And she's got no home
And he's looking at me, oh god he looks so dumb
What are you staring at? This is how it's done
I will define for you, the meaning of greed
While you were vanishing, this dirty girl got clean
What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way d-dirty girls stay clean
Oh oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way d-dirty girls stay clean
Oh oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way d-dirty girls stay clean

. . .


It's a long way back, from where I've fallen from
It's a very hard fall, it's very cruel town
And my dress is torn and I've got no jewels
And I'm hungry for a life a little less cruel
Some dignity, and not too much sorrow
Just a little bit of hope, hold out for tomorrow
Oh I don't care what it takes my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don't care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
It's a long ride home, and my head is bowed
And you're no comfort to me now
And it's fully loaded
And it's set on stun
At least I know, that I have won
And my wig's on crooked and I've got no jewels
I rock back and forth and I wait for you
And I don't care what it takes my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don't care what have to defend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And out of it all, I have survived
From the fires of hell, I am alive
Sin its costs your spirit
Survived the mess you've made
Oh god can you hear us? You're my salvation day
And it's time for me, yeah, to take a stand
And it's time for me, yeah, to be a man
And I don't care what it takes my friend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
Oh and I don't care what I have to pretend
I will never go hungry, go hungry again
And the phoenix she rises, she is sure to descend
She will never go hungry, go hungry again
And you're looking to me more and more like a godsend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
And we owe each other nothing, there's no one left here to offend
We will never go hungry, go hungry again
