"Open Vein" lyrics
I open up a vein and then make it rain
Then look 'em in the eyes, empathize, never say a thang
They color drain, change skin tone into ghost white
Will try to maintain and go from struggle to no fight
The boogey man's real, he lookin' right in the mirror
The body dead still, and that reflection is clearer
Yeah hell been at my heels, but now I'm feelin' it nearer
There's nothin' left to feel but oh that scream I can hear her
Bleach in the sink and wash it all away
My hands are bloody, hit the water, watch it fall away
Then tell myself that I will never let it happen again
I really know it won't end, but I still have to pretend
I'm insane with a razor blade
And now I've come in here to save the day
No matter what they all say
Yeah I'ma cut 'em up and make 'em all pay
Feel so alive when they die
I spill blood with the best of them
And I got something for the rest of them
No matter what they all do
The Ginsu is gonna run 'em all through
Feel so alive when they die
By thirty-three, and my sympathy, it is withering
From misery that I consistently am delivering
The depravity of this thing is becoming sickening
Reality is that he is no longer listening
I'm broken, so I let it burn
This world is hopeless, out of focus, I won't let it turn
Until they notice my neurosis, tell me, let 'em bleed
My magnum opus, diagnosis is to set 'em free
And have 'em pleadin' for mercy is always for the weak
This blade insatiably thirty so I'ma let 'em drink
And cut 'em deep until their blood drown out all of they lies
Forty days of fuckin' flood to drown out all of they lives
I'm insane with a razor blade
And now I've come in here to save the day
No matter what they all say
Yeah I'ma cut 'em up and make 'em all pay
Feel so alive when they die
I spill blood with the best of them
And I got something for the rest of them
No matter what they all do
The Ginsu is gonna run 'em all through
Feel so alive when they die
I'm insane with a razor blade
And now I've come in here to save the day
No matter what they all say
Yeah I'ma cut 'em up and make 'em all pay
Feel so alive when they die
I spill blood with the best of them
And I got something for the rest of them
No matter what they all do
The Ginsu is gonna run 'em all through
Feel so alive when they die
Then look 'em in the eyes, empathize, never say a thang
They color drain, change skin tone into ghost white
Will try to maintain and go from struggle to no fight
The boogey man's real, he lookin' right in the mirror
The body dead still, and that reflection is clearer
Yeah hell been at my heels, but now I'm feelin' it nearer
There's nothin' left to feel but oh that scream I can hear her

My hands are bloody, hit the water, watch it fall away
Then tell myself that I will never let it happen again
I really know it won't end, but I still have to pretend
I'm insane with a razor blade
And now I've come in here to save the day
No matter what they all say
Yeah I'ma cut 'em up and make 'em all pay
Feel so alive when they die
