Description
From the manger to the morgue strangers are born and reborn
Giving birth to the wages of sin
And claiming it came from within.. within...
Within me is a gaping hole,
It seems I'm last to know
No one or thing can fill this empty space that I've been pacing in
I fell in love with an empty place,
But I want change.
But I won't change.
I can't feel a thing - the pins and needles sing:
"I can say it, but it won't mean a thing,
Cause I know you'll fall for each and every pretty word I sing."
Spirits spin me round once more
Sin if you sing the overture that lulls me back to sleep
I swear I'm yours to keep
CONSUMED with CONSUMING
And soon I'll swallow people whole,
I'll have back what strangers stole
If I can't find my happiness I'll soon devour yours
I'll sing your weary head to rest with my overture
Cause I fell in love with an empty place,
But I want yours, but I want yours.
