hey god, why are you doing this to me?
am i not living up to what i'm supposed to be?
why am i seething with this animosity?
hey god, i think you owe me a great big apology
terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie
hey god, i really don't know what you mean
seems like salvation comes only in my dreams
i feel my hatred grow all the more extreme
hey god, can this world really be as sad as it seems?
terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie
don't take it away from me; i need you to hold on to
don't take it away from me; i need you to hold on to

hey god, there's nothing left for me to hide
i lost my ignorance, security, and pride
i'm all alone in a world you must despise
hey god, i believed your promises, your promises and lies
terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie...terrible lie
terrible lie
you make me throw it all away
my morals left to decay         (terrible lie)
how many you betray
you've taken everything         (terrible lie)
my head is filled with disease
my skin is begging you, please  (terrible lie)
i'm on my hands and knees
i want so much to believe
i give you everything
my sweet everything
i give you everything   (i need someone to hold on to...i need someone to hold on to)
my sweet everything     (i need someone to hold on to...i need someone to hold on to)

now i'm down in it
now i'm down in it
kinda like a cloud i was up, way up in the sky
and i was feeling some feelings you wouldn't believe
sometimes i don't believe them myself
and i decided i was never coming down
just then a tiny little dot caught my eye
it was just about too small to see
but i watched it way too long
it was pulling me down
i was up above it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it    hoomp
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
shut up so what
what does it matter now?
i was swimming in the haze now i crawl on the ground
and everything i never liked about you
is kinda seeping into me
try to laugh about it now
but isn't it funny how everything works out
'i guess the joke's on me' she said
i was up above it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
i was up above it        rrrrr
 now i'm down in it
i used to be so big and strong
i used to know my right from wrong
i used to never be afraid
i used to be somebody
i used to have something inside
now just this hole it's open wide
i used to want it all
i used to be somebody
i'll cross my heart, i'll hope to die
but the needle's already in my eye
and all the world's weight is on my back
and i don't even know why
what i used to think was me
is just a fading memory
i looked him right in the eye and said 'good-bye'
i was up above it          oh
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
now i'm down in it      (i was up above it)
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
i was up above it
now i'm down in it
i was up above it
rain, rain, go away
come again some other day
rain, rain, go away
come again some other day
rain, rain, go away
come again some other day
rain, rain, go away
come again some other day
i was up above it       rrrrr
i was up above it     rrrrrrrrr
now i'm down in it
na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na
na na na na na na na na na           (i was up above it)
na na na na na na na na na na na  (rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
na na na na na na                     rrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaa
na na na na na na na na na              aaaaaaaaaaaoooow)
na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na   (rrrrrrr..now i'm down in it)

it's still getting worse after everything i've tried
what if i found a way to wash it all aside?
what if she touches with those fingertips?
as the words spill out like fire from her lips
if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified inside you
heaven's just a roumor she'll dispell
as she walks me through the nicest parts of hell        dance of hell
i still dream of lips i never should have kissed
well, she knows exactly what i can't resist
and if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
and if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified inside you
"dear mom and dad, this is the hardest letter i've ever had to write.  i'd hoped somehow to
get out of this quickly so that you'd never have to know about it, but that just isn't possi-
ble now.  i don't know what's going to happen, but what can i say to you?  will 'i'm sorry'
make a difference?  will it ease the pain?  the shame you must be feeling...forgive
me...please"
i'm just caught up in another of her spells
well, she's turning me into someone else
every day i hope and pray that this will end
but when i can i do it all again
and if she says come inside i'll come inside for her
and if she says give it all i'll give everything to her
i am justified
i am purified
i am sanctified inside you
i am justified
i am purified i am sanctified inside you

i still recall the taste of your tears
echoing your voice just like the ringing in my ears
my favorite dreams of you still wash ashore
scraping through my head 'til i don't want to sleep anymore
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
you always were the one to show me how
back then i couldn't do the things that i can do now
this thing is slowly taking me apart
grey would be the color if i had a heart
come on, tell me
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
in this place it seems like such a shame
though it all looks different now, i know it's still the same
everywhere i look you're all i see
just a fading fucking reminder of who i used to be
come on, tell me
you make this all go away
you make this all go away
i'm down to just one thing and i'm starting to scare myself
you make this all go away
you make it all go away
i just want something
i just want something i can never have
i just want something i can never have

i can't shake this feeling from my head
there's a devil sleeping in my bed
he's watching you from across the way
i cannot make this feeling go away
i know it's not the right thing
and i know it's not the good thing
but kinda i want to
kinda i want to
i'm not sure of what i should do
when every thought i'm thinking of is you
all of my excuses turn to lies
or maybe god will cover up his eyes
and i know it's not the right thing
and i know it's not the good thing
but kinda i want to
kinda i want to
kinda i want to
kinda i want to
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
...somebody
kinda i want to maybe just for tonight
we can pretend it's alright
what's the price i pay?
i don't care what they say
i want to
i want to
i want to
i want to
i want to
i want to
i want to i want to

you give me the reason, you give me control
i gave you my purity, my purity you stole
did you think i wouldn't recognize this compromise?
am i just too stupid to realize?
stale incence, old sweat, and lies, lies, lies
it comes down to this
your kiss, your fist
and your strain it gets under my skin
within, take in
the extent of my sin
you give me the anger
you give me the nerve
carry out my sentence
will i get what i deserve?
i'm just an effigy to be disgraced
to be defaced
your need for me has been replaced
and if i can't have everything
well, then just give me a taste
it comes down to this
your kiss, your fist
and your strain it gets under my skin
within, take in
the extent of my sin
you give me the reason, you give me control
i gave you my purity and my purity you stole
did you think i wouldn't recognize this compromise?
am i just too stupid to realize?
stale incense, old sweat, and lies, lies, lies
it comes down to this                   to this
your kiss                               your kiss
your fist                                       your fist
and your strain it gets under my skin   my skin
within                                  within
take in                                 take in
my sin
it comes down to this                   to this
your kiss                               your kiss
your fist                                       your fist
and your strain it gets under my skin   my skin
within                                  within
take in                                 take in the extent of my sin                    my sin

just when everything was making sense
you took away all my self-confidence
now all that i've been hearing must be true
i guess i'm not the only boy for you
but that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
how can you turn me into this?
after you just taught me how to kiss you
i told you i'd never say goodbye
now i'm slipping on the tears, you've made me cry
but that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
why's it come as a surprise?
to think that i was so naive
maybe didn't mean that much
but it meant everything to me
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get
that's what i get that's what i get

i'm drunk
and right now i'm so in love with you
and i don't want to think too much about what we should or shouldn't do
lay my hands on heaven and the sun and the moon and the stars
while the devil wants to fuck me in the back of his car
nothing quite like the feel of something new
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive       a, ah, oh
i swear
i just found everything i need
the sweat in your eyes, the blood in you veins are listening to me
well, i want to rip it up and swim in it until i drown
my moral standing is lying down
nothing quite like the feel of something new
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up
maybe i'm all messed up in you
maybe i'm all messed up
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive
oooooh!
maybe i'm all messed up in you
ow
owoowow
no no owoowow
owoowow
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive
this is the only time i really feel alive oh

well, you've got me working so hard lately
working my hands until they bleed
if i was twice the man i could be
i'd still be half of what you need
still you lead me and i follow
anything you ask you know i'll do
this one act of consecration is what i ask of you
ringfinger...promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger...sever flesh and bone
offer it to me
well, you just leave me nailed here
hanging like jesus on this cross
i'm just dying for your sins and aiding to the cause
ringfinger...promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger...sever flesh and bone
offer it to me
wrap my eyes in bandages
confessions i see through
i get everything i want when i get part of you
ringfinger...promise carved in stone
it's deeper than the sea
ringfinger...sever flesh and bone
and offer it to me
ringfinger...a promise carved in stone
deeper than the sea
ringfinger...devil's flesh and bone
do something for me
ringfinger
"ahhhhhdddda"
