Wait while I tap a vein A pint of my blood Deal out the perfect poison Victim return, back where you've stood Sip it, taste it Let it occupy and blind Consuming of the fumes You are mine
Confess to me a sin Impress me with a lie Exchange for the vice you tread I'm grinning through sleepless eyes
Witch of the blood-letting Forcing out your tears Spitting out your tales of woe On my weakened, deafened ears The hour of dark approaches The night of the living dead Empty-eyed staring Make a fool then lay down your head
Confess to me a sin Impress me with a lie Exchange for a vice you tread I'm grinning through sleepless eyes
Sleepless eyes Sleepless eyes
Boarding up my kingdom Leave all this behind Spine stretched To crawl back to the grind
Dusk walking Into ashes of my home Broken and silenced Abandoned and cold Commencing of the cleansing The stealing of myself Save a life, twist the knife An enemy of my health
Confess to me a sin Impress me with a lie Exchange for a vice you tread I'm grinning through sleepless eyes
