Sins of the Other

You seem to pass the time
Lost in android rhymes
As your paralysed
Soporific ideals
Dematerialised
You forgot
How you should live

Crawl beneath my skin
I know I let you in
It seems to tantalise
As you tattoo lies
To cleanse yourself of sin

New wounds yawning
Bleeding more than you can hear
Fate lies gnawing
At the love you didn’t want to bear

Now you fall
Staring at a page of red
Danger on it
This messianic loaf of bread
Just ask to see the light
I’ll set your mind on fire

Crawl beneath my skin
I know I let you in
It seems to paralyse
As your tattooed lies
Cleanse your sin

How will I bleed
With all your want
Or will you give it up forever
Where is your need
Is it all lost
Or just another limb
To sever

Crawl beneath my skin
I know I let you
I materialise
As you tattooed lies
Teach me sin
