I tear apart the pages of the story of my life In black and white, the wrong and right will struggle to survive
And I've been falling apart in the pouring rain I'm waging war on myself, a captive casualty Traded a merciful heart for a murderer's brain But now I curse what's in my head Because I can't stop seeing red
Did you really think I would falter, my friend? I've destroyed you before, I'll destroy you again I'm the hell that is your future, I'll incinerate your past I'm the devil on your shoulder, but I'll always be your better half
We might share one body But this spine is fucking mine By now you should know You're just a spectator, I'm the show
Is this the end of me?
'Cause I've been falling apart in the pouring rain I'm waging war on myself, a captive casualty Traded a merciful heart for a murderer's brain But now I curse what's in my head Because I can't stop seeing red
Did you really think you could hide from me, doctor? Have you not seen the legacy I've carved into the flesh of this city? Even Van Gogh would call it a bloody good impression An artist of infection and you're just another piece of my collection A mirror image of perfection Whose time has fucking come
'Cause I've been falling apart in the pouring rain I'm waging war on myself, a captive casualty Traded a merciful heart for a murderer's brain But now I curse what's in my head Because I can't stop seeing red
Friends and fellow countrymen, lend me your ears The following revelation's for you skeptics to hear There exists no good, only unrealized evil I'll bring hope to the sinners and death to the people
I tear apart the pages of the story of my life
'Cause I've been falling apart in the pouring rain I'm waging war on myself, a captive casualty Traded a merciful heart for a murderer's brain But now I curse what's in my head Because I can't stop seeing red
I'm seeing red The doctor is dead I bid thee farewell Fuck my fate Just save a seat for me in Hell
