Suddenly the guilt is written on your face 

God only knows how down deep it goes 

Nothin left to say in this pitiful state 

I'm takin' the shame out on a song 



I need to settle down maybe 

Take some pity on myself 



Damn you, I said damn 

My mind is better off dead 

Damn you, I said damn 

Who are these voices in my head 



Someone poured cold cement in your soul 

And now all the beautiful colors are turning to gray 

I notice you're happy only when you're miserable 

(like some other people I know) 

You love to eat your heart out just for the taste 



We bleed so preciously, baby 

Hopeless refugees of war 



Damn you, I said damn 

My mind is better off dead 

Damn you, I said damn 

Oh, God, I feel like I'm shot in the head 



Into the air and into the lungs 

And then down under the skin 

Sweetly feeding the blood becoming 

Part of the flesh part of the bone 

Becoming the brain & blackening the soul 



Hip hip hip boom boom way to go 

I got a brand new me I don't even know 

Before I get a little sick or a 

Little cold, there's just one thing that you should know 



We scream so desperately, baby 

Choking on the words as they fall 



Damn you I said damn 

My mind is better off dead 

Damn you I said 

I can't stop these feelings
