Pulling Your Insides Out

baby watch my blood boil
to an opalescent blue
better draw the curtain
they're trying to catch a glimpse of you
slowly watch the fruit die
still clinging to the vine
redemption from a bottle
that stays empty all the time

but my dear it's worth the pain
when they're pulling your insides out

baby know your nemesis
he's posing as your best friend
don't believe the newspapers
they're telling lies again
the cold hand of the healers
will slice your soul in two
they roll out the red carpet
just to pull it out from under you

but my dear it's worth the pain
when they're pulling your insides out

baby mind the vultures
they're circling round the bone
feeding from the idols
they think they can draw blood from a stone
the more the diamond glitters
the more it can deceive
the Truth lay in the treasure
of what we disbelieve

but my dear it's worth the pain
when they're pulling your insides out
