Lyrics

Lycanthropy

I was once a boy
'Til I cut my penis off
And I grew a hairy skull
Of stubborn fire
Then I was a girl
'Til I sewed my hole up
And I grew a hairy heart
Of dark desire
But, there's no answer just surrender
Send all your barriers into the fire
And let no foot mark your ground
Let no hand hold you down
You were once so sad
'Til you cut your suffer off
Now you please yourself
And fight your own wars
And you were once so weak
'Til you sewed your wounds up
Now you've learnt to sing
About sun and shine
Be you own hero
Be your own savior
Send all your suffering
Into the fire
