Lyrics

[00:27.72] I watched as the black sky parted back
[00:29.89] Through fields of tar and thread
[00:32.76] A tourniquet of lace and dialect
[00:36.71] Our ceremony
[00:38.80] I fall as the comfort rushes in
[00:42.06] No terrifying dreams
[00:45.23] I'll shed my skin for you
[00:52.04]
[00:55.97] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[01:01.91] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[01:06.22] A picture of my genocide
[01:08.97]
[01:19.41] Paralyze the light fell from your eyes
[01:23.04] My hope is faded grey
[01:25.72] Our wickedness we share
[01:28.73] This ceremony
[01:31.16] I watched as the antique sky turned black
[01:34.54] Through fields of heroin
[01:37.29] I'll shed my skin for you
[01:42.60]
[01:44.03] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[01:54.10] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[01:58.53] A portrait of my genocide
[02:00.35] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[02:05.41] Have I broken my addiction dead inside
[02:10.04] A portrait of my genocide
[02:11.53]
[02:26.66] A portrait of the artist, a portrait of a young man
[02:30.16] To sing this song in silence is grand
[02:40.91] My addiction
[02:42.91] Dead inside
[02:44.16] Broken
[02:45.41] Genocide
[02:46.97] My addiction
[02:48.54] Dead inside
[02:49.73] Broken
[02:51.10] Genocide
