Everything Destroys You
I’ve got electric blood
And a Bible at hand
But it’s the mouth between my legs
That speaks of promised lands
I wear the cheapest heart
Prostituted from scratch
When your cigarette kills the dark
Devil strings attach
No one protects you
Die for a lie
I will infect you
Then satisfy
Everything destroys you
When I’m close
Everything destroys us
And it shows
I’ve kissed the mother of God
In the shade of the cross
And her tongue inside my mouth
Makes her one of us
We’re in God’s empty room
We’re rejected since birth
And every time you scream for them
It scars heavens and earth
Cold, chains, lights, drain
The darkest flame has just burned through
The final pleasures have turned you
Everything destroys you
When I’m close
Everything destroys us
And it shows
All creations end
Nothing will mend
The end glows
