Bruised and Bloodied

Add meat to the body
Abandon your own welfare
Feel safe in the knowledge
That you'll save yourself with prayer

Disgrace everybody
Then bask in the afterglow
If I beat myself
It seems like you just don't care at all

It's really fucking pitiful

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied

Conceit so lovely
You've led me into despair
This rape and pillage of all things
That I hold dear

Deface my body with gifts
That you now bestow
When I need somebody
It seems like you're just not there at all

It's really fucking pitiful

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied

These disembodied emotions are all laid bare
So please tell me when will I wake
From this new nightmare?

I'm not asking to pray about
Parade around
Or save somebody
Lost the courage, I'm craven now
You're way too proud
All bruised and bloodied
