I’m preaching death to the wounded
Through clouds of nitrogen smoke
Falsehoods and mirrors you pedal
Blunt shards of fabricated hope
Tell me, what can I sell
To stay on this carousel?
It just keeps spinning too fast for me
Can you feel my heart?
Can you feel it dancing to its own death march?
Start the acid wash again
Until there’s no marks left on my skin
You can peel and preen, taxidermy
I’m a brain-dead effigy
Can you feel my pulse?
Got to get my revenge before it stops
Only my essence remains
Sugar-coated and wrapped
Marinated in snake oil
Surrounded by sycophants
Propagating façade
That I can barely endure
But there’s no turning back any more
Through clouds of nitrogen smoke
Falsehoods and mirrors you pedal
Blunt shards of fabricated hope
Tell me, what can I sell
To stay on this carousel?
It just keeps spinning too fast for me
Can you feel my heart?
Can you feel it dancing to its own death march?
Start the acid wash again
Until there’s no marks left on my skin
You can peel and preen, taxidermy
I’m a brain-dead effigy
Can you feel my pulse?
Got to get my revenge before it stops
Only my essence remains
Sugar-coated and wrapped
Marinated in snake oil
Surrounded by sycophants
Propagating façade
That I can barely endure
But there’s no turning back any more
