"Reaching Heaven By Violence" lyrics

Among the scum and slime
I'm scabbed and filthy
Hard to recognize
I'm faded skating down the street
To meet up with the hollow eyes
I can't escape it, I been raped and used up
Strung out, tossed aside
I lost my soul, I made a hole
Now it's my only place to hide

Reaching heaven
(And when you sleep)
Shot from hell
(You cannot dream)
And if I die, it's just as well
(This waking world)

I'm in heaven
(And when you sleep)
High as hell
(You cannot dream)
If I die, it's just as well
(This waking world)

I made a pact
I got spit back up from God's stomach
Bathroom floor, I spat a curse
I begged for mercy
Uncle, uncle, please no more
I'll zero sum the empty hum
I throw myself into the void
I want to rest but its just suffering
For now, forevermore

I'm in heaven
(And when you sleep)
High as hell
(You cannot dream)
If I die, it's just as well
(This waking world)

Reaching heaven
(And when you sleep)
Shot from hell
(You cannot dream)
And if I die, it's just as well
(This waking world)

Don't force it
It's gone
Just force it
You're gone

Under rock and dirt and swollen molten mother earth
I'll cut it out, I'll shove it in
I'll cover up my cardinal sin
Make room for the fire
Make room for the fire
