"The Surgeon" lyrics

"The Surgeon"

Bleeding for the martyr, we were bleeding for the Pope
We were bleeding for the victim, we were bleeding for the dope
We were bleeding for the felon as he tried to catch his breath
And the motherfucker cried out (Bleed till death)
There was blood upon the window, there was blood upon the floor
There was blood upon the shaking hand the hand that locked the door
We were bleeding for the children as I tried to catch my breath
And the motherfucker cries out (Bleed till death)

Don't break my concentration, don't break my back in two
One steady hand fixation, one cut bleed all over you
Don't break my concentration
Don't break my back in two

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut your dreams away, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near

We were killing for the people, we were killing for the state
We were killing just for killing, and we did it out of hate
We were killing for the innocent, the guilty catch their breath
Then the motherfucker cries out (Kill till death)
There were bodies in the garden, there were bodies on the street
There was carnage, beg ya pardon and a body at my feet
We were killing for the innocent, the guilty catch their breath
Then the motherfucker cries out (Kill till death)

Don't break my concentration, don't break my back in two
One steady hand fixation, one cut bleed all over you

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut your dreams away, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near

Bleed out in the morning, in the morning air (Bleed out, bleed out)
Bleed out in the afternoon, in the evening I don't care (Bleed out)
The world stops on its axis, in the face of fear (Bleed out, bleed out)
And I can't feel your heartbeat now, when I hold you near (Bleed out)

Bleed out, in the morning air (Bleed out, bleed out)
Bleed out, in the evening I don't care (Bleed out, bleed out)

I am the surgeon, I am the face of fear
I cut away your dreams, and long to hold you near
I am the surgeon, I never shed a tear
I am the surgeon and I long, I long, long to hold you near
