Otep - Nein lyrics

My pain, my pride, these scars are mine [x3] I will tell you a story That's never been told I wll tell you a secret Five lifetimes old My life has been a prison A labyrinth built beneath the mountain of tragedy I'm a stain on the cloth I'm just an after-thought But I Would die For this But through the veins of decay I'll remain to betray To live like Caesar To die like Jesus To build my own religion No gods, no laws To celebrate pain Forsaken and ashamed To watch them all Crawl beneath us On this bed of nails and regret Dying of fevers, betrayal, and sweat I cry My organs are rotting My enemies are plotting I am made of pages Paragraphs and inspirations Paper girl, burn the world I pa** the flame to you Murder, mayhem, hurt her, hate him [x4] Murder, mayhem, f** her, slay them My pain, my pride, these scars are mine [x2] My pain My misery has been formulated into an equation of nein My sanity wrote a suicide note but One of us is illiterate And the other is blind My first act of treason was picking up a pen My First act of love was Finding myself again The hardest thing to do Was standing up to you Now I'm off my knees Now you're begging me please I'm the wound and the weapon The fracture and the Fist My organs are rotting My enemies are plotting I am made of pages Paragraphs and inspirations Paper girl, burn the world I pa** the flame to you Murder, mayhem, hurt her, hate him [x4] Murder, mayhem, f** her, slay them That stabbing in your heart That black hole in your soul Slowly ripping you apart That's me [x2] So let it be written So let it be done The brighter they shine The darker We Become Vae victus, abomination [x3]
