"Actus Reus" lyrics
Spot me on the road, late night while you're driving
Holding up a thumb, frail wrists, hitch hiking
You can pick me up, gullible and I like it
Call you roadkill 'cause there's no way that you're surviving
Spot me on the road, late night while you're driving
Holding up a thumb, frail wrists, hitch hiking
You can pick me up, gullible and I like it
Call you roadkill 'cause there's no way that you're surviving
I'll make you disappear and never be found
That's not a threat, it's a promise
Ubiquitous, yet no one wants you around
I hope the void brings you solace
Your life means nothing, yet your death is profound
I'll make believe I'm your goddess, baby
To take the weight of the world in my hands
It truly would be an honour
I can't create or destroy
But I'll make you something new
As you decompose, let the Earth embrace you
You took all my choices
I'll give your body to the land
To give the world a chance, let the Earth embrace you
(You are now listening to Ma-ni-fes-to)
Watch the life leave from your body
And the soul leave from my body now
Disintegrate in pieces as you blend into the background
All this brutal hatred
I don't wanna perpetrate it
But then life gets complicated
What the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Yeah life gets complicated, what the fuck have I done now?
What the fuck have I done now?
(What the fuck have I done now?)
You whisper sweet nothings, but your tongue is like a knife
Lacerating 'til it's scarring, disfigures me 'til I'm disgusting
You create an outcast, then question why I'm suffering
You stole all my innocence, then you claim I was too trusting
Raised on pain and neglect, I hate the monster I'm becoming
Became a weapon by design, so my trauma counts for something
Forge my pain into a blade, disembowel you through your stomach
I'm not the only one to blame, when the world around is crumbling
Holding up a thumb, frail wrists, hitch hiking
You can pick me up, gullible and I like it
Call you roadkill 'cause there's no way that you're surviving
Spot me on the road, late night while you're driving
Holding up a thumb, frail wrists, hitch hiking
You can pick me up, gullible and I like it
Call you roadkill 'cause there's no way that you're surviving
I'll make you disappear and never be found
That's not a threat, it's a promise
Ubiquitous, yet no one wants you around
I hope the void brings you solace
Your life means nothing, yet your death is profound
I'll make believe I'm your goddess, baby
To take the weight of the world in my hands
It truly would be an honour
I can't create or destroy
But I'll make you something new
As you decompose, let the Earth embrace you
You took all my choices
I'll give your body to the land
To give the world a chance, let the Earth embrace you
(You are now listening to Ma-ni-fes-to)
Watch the life leave from your body
And the soul leave from my body now
Disintegrate in pieces as you blend into the background
All this brutal hatred
I don't wanna perpetrate it
But then life gets complicated
What the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Woah, what the fuck have I done now?
Yeah life gets complicated, what the fuck have I done now?
What the fuck have I done now?
(What the fuck have I done now?)
You whisper sweet nothings, but your tongue is like a knife
Lacerating 'til it's scarring, disfigures me 'til I'm disgusting
You create an outcast, then question why I'm suffering
You stole all my innocence, then you claim I was too trusting
Raised on pain and neglect, I hate the monster I'm becoming

Forge my pain into a blade, disembowel you through your stomach
I'm not the only one to blame, when the world around is crumbling
