Shattered Pieces - Otep

And this is how the world died

And this is how the world died

I can hear you judging me

I’ll hear your confession

I found the best piece of me

Kneel down

Alone shivering in the dark

Place your face between my thighs

Three centimeters tall

And talk to God

Eating it’s heart

You will not feast on me today

This is how the world died

Who will slay this thing?

I forgive you

Who will play the butcher and

End my suffering?

I forgive you

I fucked the minds of the masses

With the fingers of liberty

This is not a threat

This is not a threat

I’m not perfect

I’m not a beauty queen

I’m still me, I’m just me, fuck me

We’re all prisoners here

All the shapes and sizes

All the shapes and sizes

Forever

Chasing the sun

I’m proud of me

She bites her trembling mind

It began as all tragedies do

Forgive me, forgive me

With pain and deception

If you’ll be the paper I’ll be the pen

This is it

I’ve tasted hell and it tastes just like you

My final plea

No one is coming to save me

No one is going to change things

The answers will not drop from the sky

I will not one day wake with a different disguise

No, no

The only solution is revolution

Art is war

Fight, fight

The odds were always against me

I exist, I exist

I’m broken, I am broken

I exist, I exist

I’m broken

If God is my father

Then I am an orphan

I am broken, I’m not a mistake

Not a mistake

My ancestry is a ghost story

I’m a prophecy

My love life is a crime scene

I’m an omen

My self-esteem is a

String of unsolved murders

The radio is brain washing me

Filling my head with these self-conspiracies

I am an emotional nightmare

I can’t hide the pain inside

Builder of my own mythology

Just tell me, you’re listening
