Pain Of Salvation - Used lyrics

rate me

"I am the unclean

The black drop at the bottom of your cup

You'd better drink or throw me up

'Cause I am on your lip and tongue

God

I'm not yours as much as you are mine

So let me in to be your lung

Just breathe me deep and take another sip

So still

A taste so sweet but so bitter the kill

Still on your lip

You are so close

I'll let you come

Between my legs you are closer death than sun

And I'm not your daughter as much as you're my son

I'll let you come

In my mouth on your lip

So ready and thirsty for the next sip

You let me in, I let you come

I'd never let you down

You let me win, I let you drown!"

Getting used to pain

I am crying unwept tears through this violence

I'll die trying to break this thick crust of silence

"I am the greatest star

So bright that you all come forth and beg to taste my light

I can take you far but I'll burn you out before we get there

But hey! Who am I to stand in your way?

Go ahead; swallow me down!

I'll have no problems finding myself out

When you've gone down

When your all cracked and wound."

Getting used to pain

I am crying unwept tears through this violence

I'll die trying to break this thick crust of silence

Trading pain is a bad deal

I've got more than my share

Too much to bear!

Every beat of the hammer

Every blood stricken street:

A way to trade off heat.

They will bleed till I'm empty

If I deserve to die I'll make it show

I will stain your affection, I will wear out your heart

You'll follow where I go

Blood stains

Cut veins

Filthy

Murder

Leave me...
